Objects Embodied in Earth with Lyn Swett Miller
February 2nd - March 9th, 2026
Mondays 6:30-8:30 pm EST
In this six week practice group, participants will explore how photography can help us make sense of the earthly energy embodied in our stuff. We will take objects, whether a beloved heirloom or a favorite tchochke for walks, exploring the way light, texture and place influence our connections not just to the objects, but more fundamentally to ourselves. Are the spirits of our objects inviting us in or asking us to move on?
Bodies Connected by Earth with Frances Bukovsky
January 15 - February 19, 2026
Thursdays 6 - 8 pm EST
In this 6-week practice group, participants will explore how our creative practices can learn from the depth and complexity of Earth. Drawing from disability and ecological studies, we will consider the ways that deep rest can be a creative and transmutative force, as well as the interdependence of all living things through Earth. Using self-portraiture, embodied photographic practices, and/or transforming currently existing work with intention and care, we will use our cameras to build relationships with the earthen bodies that surround us.
Deep Forces with Kaye Savage
January 27th - March 3rd, 2026
Tuesdays 7 - 8:30 pm EST
In this 6-week practice group, participants will explore an ongoing project in a new way, or start something completely different. The group will use the rock cycle and plate tectonics as inspiration for practice. Melting and crystallizing, slow flow, erosion, sedimentation, and burial. Coming together, splitting apart, abrading. How do our internal processes and external experiences meet in our photographs? Where does geology connect with our own living world? Weekly meetings will involve sharing, discussion, take-or-leave prompts, and image resources from other photographers.
Earth Through the Lens of Time with Dale Rio
February 3rd - March 3rd, 2026
Tuesdays 7 - 9 pm EST for 5 weeks.
In this 5-week practice group, participants will explore how Earth can be perceived through different time scales, and how we relate to the vast span of time that encompasses the history of the Earth. Do we - or should we - view life as linear or cyclical or something else entirely?
