Analogue Workshops
The Analogue Approach Project (TAAP), is a darkroom studio in Delhi, that explores the culture of printmaking, the perspectives of printmakers, and stories behind the images exposed over time. We have been running workshops since June of 2020. Most of them have been around printing in the darkroom but others have just dealt with film processing. We will continue to run more workshops over the course of the year.
Over a hundred people have come through the studio to learn beginner to intermediate level analogue photography.
