Dark Room Socials Presents: Finding the Light

Dark Room Socials invites you to Finding the Light, our latest group exhibition featuring the work of 20 photographers in collaboration with Astera. Each artist explores the theme of light—both literal and metaphorical—through a series of images that reflect personal journeys, moments of transformation, and new ways of seeing the world.

Expect an exhibition that’s bold, diverse, and thought-provoking—spanning intimate portraits, abstract studies, and everyday observations—all unified by the question: how do we find the light?

✨ Private View: Monday 22 September, 6pm

Throughout the week, we’ll also be running a series of public workshops designed to inspire and get you hands-on with creative techniques:

• Cyanotype Workshop with Marion Gabrielle (@mariongabriellephotos)
• Portrait Lighting with Diana Olifirova (@didiontheroll)
• Cinematic Lighting with Charlie Lodge (@charlie_lodge)
• Creative Use of Mylar with Tassia Quirino (@tassiaquirino)
• Storytelling in a portrait with Ravi Chandarana (@ravi.chandarana)
