Young Photographers Weekend

Tolu Elusadé is a Nigerian Londoner, visual artist, and curator. They use photography and poetry to document, archive, and preserve ideas cultivated from personal and shared experiences. By connecting intergenerational communities with art activism, they work to preserve aural and tangible histories through authentic creation.

Revolv Collective is an artist-run organisation based in the UK that promotes the practice, teaching and dissemination of expanded photography. Lina Ivanova and Krasimira Butseva established Revolv in 2017 in Portsmouth, UK, with the ambition to create opportunities for early-career artists. Since then, their numerous projects have fostered creativity and artistic innovation through a collaborative, interdisciplinary and non-hierarchical approach focused on access to educational and professional resources. The collective’s active members are Lina Ivanova, Laura Bivolaru, Victoria Doyle, Alexander Mourant and Lucas Gabellini-Fava, with honorary members, Krasimira Butseva and Ibrahim Azab.

The two members representing the collective on the day and facilitating the session are Lina Ivanova and Victoria Doyle. A little bit about the members in attendance:

Lina Ivanova as one of the co-founders has an overview of the life of the collective and its development into what it is today. With a background in education she participates in the planning and delivering of collective activity focused around the process of learning through experimentation and collaboration.

Victoria Doyle is a third wave collective member, joining in early 2020. Their role in the collective centres around learning, a core element of their practice. Specialising in the design and development of learning experiences that forefront paragogy (peer-learning), learning-by-doing and neurodiversity, they work closely with members to realise accessible, learner-led projects.

Danielle Royer is a multidisciplinary artist who blends illustration, animator, 3D modeling, photography and immersive technologies such as VR/AR to create character-driven experiences. She is also a museum and academia facilitator and enjoys fusing new technology with traditional practice.

Aisha Olamide Seriki (b 1998) is a Nigerian multi-disciplinary artist in London, specialising in fine art photography and sculpture. Seriki works from a canon of personal histories which splice contemporary realities. Her practice is holistic and embodied, subverting formal photographic traditions. Cosmological systems such as the Yoruba Spiritual Tradition have informed the multisensory approach Seriki has to documentation, communication and creation. Through optics and trickery, she challenges the rigid imagination of self, creating space in the archive for a wider definition.
