When Words Fall Short

Photography can hold what words cannot. Drawing from her deeply personal project No Mother Is An Island, a documentary of her mother's passing, Da'Shaunae Marisa leads an honest conversation about using image-making to navigate grief, loss, and hardship. This workshop creates space for participants to explore how the camera can become a tool for healing and self-expression.

Photography doesn't have to live on a wall. Da'Shaunae Marisa brings images to life through tactile, interactive experiences, from photo Rubik's Cubes to immersive installations. This workshop explores how photography can turn into an object, a puzzle, and a conversation starter.
