Nicolas Laborie In Conversation with IMA

IMA Studio is pleased to invite the current exhibiting artist at the The Muse Gallery, Nicolas Laborie, for an artist talk & discussion, in association with The Muse Gallery | Studio.

​

Specialising in Wet Plate Collodion, Nicolas is a Paris-born London-based photographer whose work discusses social commentary, human condition, and gender equality through the wet plate collodion process; mixing 19th century photographic process and technique with contemporary subjects.

​

Nicolas's new self-published book 'Sentiments Déshabillés' will be the lens through which he will discuss his practice/process and also the difference between a portfolio and an art book, the freedom of self publishing and the compromises along the way; including collaboration with others while regaining creative control, the financial side, and promotions/distributions.

​

The event will begin with a talk by Nicolas, about his Wet Plate Collodion practice and his new book & exhibition. This will be followed by an open conversation, and round table discussion between Nicolas, IMA studio, and the audience on thoughts inspired by the talk.

​

We welcome all who are interested in Wet Plate Collodion and self-publishing, as well as those wanting to contribute their experience as a creative individual.
