The Queer Analog Darkroom (QAD) is finally opening the doors to the community for its first get-together here at Oyoun. Since accessing and practicing analog photography has its limits for discriminated and marginalized groups, the QAD emphasizes engaging with the wider community of practice.

Come and join the introduction into the project to openly exchange ideas, discuss intentions and celebrate this brave space and queer culture in photography!

There will be an introduction speech by the QAD on the 03.02.2023 at 18:30. Please try to be punctual. This event and space is for the QBIPOC and FLINTA* community. It is expected that you reflect on your everyday privileges/ your privileges in photography spaces and base your decision on whether or not this event is for you on that.

QAD - Queer Analog Darkroom - is a self-organized, inclusive skills-sharing collective for analog photography in Berlin. The core team consists of eight people, all of whom bring a wide range of different skills and knowledge related to photography. In addition to our queerness, which connects us all, our different identities and experiences of marginalization shape our collective work and perspectives on photography. As part of the 'Urbane Praxis' project funding, our collective, Queer Analog Darkroom, founded in 2022, would like to help shape urban public space in cooperation with Oyoun. Rooms are not accessible to everyone in the same way. Our goal as the QAD collective is to create spaces for a community around analogue film development and film technology through self-organized and non-commercial work. It should be a space in which we learn together and which we develop together step by step.
