Aus der Serie "From Where Loss Comes", Platinum-palladium-Abzug auf Revere Platinum Papier © Pradip Malde | | | | Pradip Malde is a photographer and teacher known for his special style of teaching photography philosophically, technically and with great empathy. In the FFF Academy, he is focusing on the materiality of photography in two events. This includes the platinum-palladium process, for which he is considered one of the few experts worldwide. In the FFF online workshop "Materiality and Vision", Malde deals with the question of how the materiality of a photograph affects the meaning of the image. The aim is learning to express one’s own photographic work optimally with the right print method. The focus of learning will be based on monitor and printer calibration, the analysis of high-resolution digital reproductions of well-known photographs as well as aspects of photo manipulation and the depiction of truth and vision. A portfolio review and a photographic and sequential assignment is also part of the schedule. The aim of the workshop is to gain a clearer understanding of how photographic work can be comprehensively articulated. The workshop is spread over three scheduled dates. In his FFF online lecture "Platinotype: Materiality and Vision" (Friday, 18 June 2021, 6 pm), Pradip Malde explores the relationship between materiality and vision using the platinum-palladium printing process as an example, which he himself uses in his latest work “From Where Loss Comes”. The project which includes the theme of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) will also be published as a book soon. | | | | | | Swirling in From Vapor, Dodoma, Tanzania, 2017.
