The first week of the workshop Light Hunters from Alfonso Borragán has been successfully completed.
It has been five intense days in which the group has had the opportunity to get to know the world of shelters, in their different forms, from animal shelters to man-made constructions: adobe buildings, trenches or wicker shelters.
All this was combined with rebellious sessions in the laboratory, making emulsions with plants, creating pinhole cameras, cyanotypes, anthotypes and salted paper. We even had the opportunity to experiment with finding a real shelter, spending a night in the countryside.
