Soda Can Pinhole Photography – Discover Barcelona in Black & White
Discover the magic of the darkroom and the art of pinhole photography in this hands-on workshop hosted in a local Barcelona gallery. We’ll transform a Coke can into a working pinhole camera, capturing black-and-white images that reflect the city’s vibrancy. This fun and creative experience is perfect for anyone curious about analogue photography.
As a university photography educator and facilitator of participatory photography workshops, I’m passionate about making photography accessible and meaningful. You’ll learn the basics of light and photography, see your images being developed in a pop-up darkroom, and leave with a beautiful black-and-white artwork you’ve created—a lasting memory of your time in Barcelona. You’ll also meet fellow photography enthusiasts, making it a great opportunity to connect with others while exploring your creativity in an inspiring setting.

- Build Your Camera: Turn a Coke can into a functional pinhole camera
- Explore and Capture: Use your handmade camera to photograph Barcelona in black & white
- Experience the Darkroom: Watch as your images are developed and brought to life
