The Sustainable Darkroom is an artist-led, research community that develops low-toxicity chemistries and practices in photography.
The project was founded by Hannah Fletcher in 2019, is co-directed with Edd Carr and supported by Xander Linger
The Sustainable Darkroom was born out of a need for collective community action and a desire to ignite change.
We:
exhibit, curate, give lectures and workshops, organise and join residencies, publish research, and more.
