Dibujando con luz – Comunidad de Río Grande . Escuela Bachilleres Emiliano zapata
The workshop introduced students to analog photography in a practical way so that they could understand the beginnings of photography and develop their creativity by doing different activities at Casa Wabi and in the darkroom. An explanation about the history of the darkroom was given, and at the end of the theoretical class, a darkroom was created with the students in the classroom. Frames were made to show students the operation of the darkroom.

Fabiola Menchelli’s work investigates photography in relation with architecture, drawing and sculpture and other media. Using the language of abstraction she constructs images that speak about the architecture of a mental space. The work focused on architecture as a mean for constructing ideas to show us the flexibility of mind in relation to the perception of space.
