Photosynthesis follow their successful 2010 exhibition with a new show “Light and Shade” at the stunning Waterhall gallery during Artsfest 2011

Birmingham based photographers Photosynthesis mount their second exhibition Light and Shade from diverse perspectives, styles and approaches.  Well-established photographer and tutor David Rann who originally challenged the group to exhibit said “last year’s show displayed great imagination, variety, and flair.  i can’t wait to see how the group has progressed”.

Amazingly Creative Local Young People

Exhibiting at the prestigious Waterhall the show includes screenings of work from our younger community members who under normal circumstances would not take photos with professional cameras.
Challenged to produce work on “Light and Shade” during the summer holiday schemes, these young people where provided with a practical art/photographic based activity, where they shoot what they see and how they see it.  It is also designed to provide a pathway for community participation, social education, empowerment and fun.
