Making a Story: Visual – Ukrainian Folklore Edition
Step into a cinematic storytelling experience inspired by Ukrainian folklore.
We invite you to join this free, artist-led workshop where photography meets narrative, symbolism, and performance. Guided by artist Karolina Kanska, you’ll explore how to build a visual story from concept to final image.
What to expect
This workshop unfolds as a live visual story:
In the first part, we introduce a Ukrainian folkloric witch, brought to life through a professional model, traditional-inspired styling, and symbolic accessories.
In the second part, the narrative evolves — the witch encounters a mythological spirit, inspired by Ukrainian folklore. This transformation creates a new emotional and visual dynamic, allowing you to capture a complete story through your lens.
You’ll have the opportunity to photograph both scenes and interpret the story in your own unique way.
What you’ll gain
• Hands-on experience working with a model
• Guidance on posing, lighting, and composition
• Insight into storytelling through photography
• Understanding how to develop a concept into a visual narrative
• Portfolio-worthy images created during the session
What to bring
Please bring your camera or smartphone - anything you feel comfortable shooting with.
Who is this for?
This workshop is perfect for:
• Photography enthusiasts at any level
• Creatives looking to build their portfolio
• Anyone curious about combining art, storytelling, and photography
No professional experience is required - just curiosity and a passion for creating.
Join us for a unique artistic journey where image-making becomes storytelling, and folklore comes to life through your lens.
