Mari Mahr was born in Santiago de Chile, studied at the School of Journalism in Budapest and worked as a press photographer before moving to London and continuing studies at the Polytechnic of Central London where she received her BA degree in Photographic Arts. In the 15 years since her first exhibition at The Photographers’ Gallery in London she has exhibited more than 30 times around the world - Holland, Greece, Germany, Italy, New Zealand, Spain, France, Yugoslavia, Mexico, Israel, America and South America. She lives and works in London, her work can be viewed in numerous prestigious galleries and museums worldwide. Monographs of her work include A Few Days in Geneva and Isolated Incidents.

Mari Mahr’s unusual photographs of places, friends and family will introduce what will be, for many, a new way of working with photography. Throughout the workshop participants will work on a personal project discussed with Mari. To that end participants are asked to think as if they were movie makers and bring ‘props’ and ‘scripts’. "Work and talk about anything that concerns you. Start from a blank page and one by one put together pieces... creating reality - your reality". Mari will be talking about her own work, showing slides and originals and would like to discuss, one-to-one, your own work - so bring a portfolio.

"Beauty is indeed the sphere of unfettered contemplation and reflection; beauty conducts us into the world of ideas, without however taking us from the world of sense..." Friedrich von Schiller
