Photography | Time, Place and Light

Aims

The project has four main aims:

To provide a platform for writing and art in Dunbar for visitors and local people.
To use three lensless photographic techniques combined to produce a unique portrait of the Dunbar location and its community.
To involve the Dunbar community in the photographic and poetic documentation of their environment.
To exhibit the works in the community and produce an accessible archive of results.

Additional objectives:

To provide an ongoing journal of the process and research as the project progresses, which the community can access, add to and comment upon.

To involve the remarkable number of talented poets, writers and artists in Dunbar, encouraging them to reflect upon Time, Place and Light.
To collaborate directly with other artists to pool resources and labour.
To enable people to express their creativity inspired by a connection with the harbour and surrounding area by working on site.
To send the work of artists and the community further afield – words/drawings/images in bottles or launched as paper boats, sending postcards, receiving pinhole/solargraph images, poetry and prose from places with a Dunbar connection.
To build on the success of previous artworks welcomed by the Harbour Trust.
