“One thing I’ve always been interested in is what the world looks like when you’re in a state of heightenedawareness. Those moments which I think everyone has where experience feels more tangible, where experience feels more vivid…with that frame of mind, relationships begin to stand out. To make all my decisions conscious, I started filling the pictures with attention.”
—Stephen Shore
Photography demands the cultivation of a loose and flexible, yet rigorous, attention to multiple conditions simultaneously: the nature of the subject, your internal response, your photographic craft, your audience, and the state of the world and/our culture of which you are a part. The power of attention is one of the most fundamental tools of human endeavor that can heighten your creativity, bring you more fully into the creative flow, and help you make authentic and memorable images.
The instructor offers a range of enjoyable exercises to cultivate attention and gain an effective and fluid freedom of expression.
Class content consists of slide shows, readings, assignments and exercises, discussion, and response/critique of participant’s work. Some class material is drawn from David’s books, The Widening Stream: the Seven Stages of Creativity, The Mindful Photographer: Awake in the World with a Camera, and Zen Camera: Creative Awakening with a Daily Practice in Photography.
Open to photographers of all levels and with any type of camera, including cell phones.
Class takes place on Zoom software. Please submit 6-8 jpg images, representative of your work, for the first class. Instructor will send Zoom link and instructions for submitting images through Dropbox or Google Drive prior to the first class.
So if we dare to use the word ‘creative’, we must see that its possibility lies in that mysterious human property of attention: not a mere mental attention, but an attention which relates and mobilizes the sensitive attention of the body, the affective intelligence of the feeling, and the ordering attention of the mind toward a more total openness to what is… and the real life, the living energy which that contains.
