What our students say about our teachers


The cyanotype class of Claudia was really mind blowing for me! Exploring this new printing technique and creating digital negatives has really opened a new window that I want to incorporate in my photographic practise. Claudia has been a very inspiring teacher. She went thoroughly through the process of cyanotype on glass as well as her own practise and work of other contemporary and historical artists using cyanotype printing techniques. I also very much appreciated the attention Claudia gave to our individual projects/ideas, pointing to artworks and ways of working we might find relevant and inspiring.

Today, sadly, is the last of Kai’s B&W class — it has been great and he’s an excellent teacher. I rejuvenated some of my Photoshop skills which have been dormant and learned a lot.  
—Lisa (New York)
Zuzana is excellent. She sees the potential in everyone’s projects and has a multitude of astute suggestions about how things are working and how to make them more effective.
—Kevin (New Jersey)
Daura and Samanta did a wonderful job facilitating this class — they were super prepared for each class and gave us really helpful resources and video tutorials that I referred to multiple times when trying out assignments. I enjoyed learning other methods of alternative processes (although cyanotype is still my favorite).
—Tina (New Orleans)
Daura and Samantha have mastered the not-so-easy task of teaching a class in craft processes very well. They were a good team and guided us through the different processes of cameraless photography with a lot of enthusiasm, youthful drive, and excitement. The documents we received were excellent. Both of them were also very helpful and guided our first steps in a benevolent manner. I really enjoyed the course, I had a lot of fun trying out the different methods, and the results are impressive.
—Barbara (Zurich)
