David Gepp was born in Belfast in 1948 and has lived in Wales for the last 20 years. His work is in collections at The Bibliotheque Nationale, Paris and the National Library of Wales. Recent commissions producing bodies of work include The Silent Echo, pictures from a Breton Island described as "this exquisitely poetic body of work", The Narrow Road to the Deep North, work undertaken in Northern Ireland, scheduled for the Ulster Museum, Belfast in May 1997, and Venezia Stenopaeica a study of Venice in colour with a 5x4" pinhole camera. The making of that work appeared as the critically acclaimed BBC documentary An Italian Dream. In 1997 he was recipient of the Quantas Travel Bursary, in 199 the Welsh Arts Council Award and lectures in photography at Hereford College of Art.

A chance to work with David, a photographer whose knowledge of the range of photography’s tools is probably unparalleled.

A practical workshop with an emphasis on taking and printing. Simple procedures such as pinhole photography will be reviewed, with the aim to encourage participants to create unique pictures where the technology of photography doesn’t interfere with a clarity of seeing.

"I have a burning desire to see what things look like when photographed by me" Gary Winogrand
