We're honored to welcome process-led artist, curator, and educator Chiara Salvi as a featured artist at our first-ever festival. As the founder of Alternative Processes, she brings a unique vision that is a cornerstone of our Special Programs. Chiara’s three-part contribution to EPF offers a deep dive into the tangible medium of photography.
The Programs:
Workshop: Chiara will lead a workshop titled, Lifting Polaroids, where participants will learn to transfer instant photo emulsions onto new surfaces, embracing unpredictability in their creative process.
Photobook Launch: She will launch the group publication, Eroding Forms, a collaboration with Ephemere that explores photography as a living, transitional practice.
Artist Talk: In her talk, Alternative Processes and Eroding Forms, Chiara will share insights into how sustainability, materiality, and imperfection guide creation, reimagining photography as a slow, process-led art that values transformation over control.
