"From Darkness into Light" Black & White Photography Exhibition

The Cathedral Church of Saint Patrick, Cathedral Close, Armagh, County Armagh, BT61 7DY
"From Darkness into Light" Black & White Photography Exhibition

About

Now that we have reached that part of the year with fewer hours of daylight, St Patrick's Church of Ireland Cathedral in Armagh is delighted to be hosting a black and white photographic exhibition with the title 'From Darkness into Light'.

As the Cathedral community celebrates the completion of its new lighting system which totally transforms the interior of the Cathedral and shines new light on its unique architectural details, the timing and theme of this exhibition could not be more appropriate.

Inspired by an Analogue Wonderland Photo Walk between Armagh's two Cathedrals in June 2024, the exhibition showcases the work of ten passionate amateur photographers. United by their love of traditional film and digital photography, with a desire to explore their surroundings, these artists have captured sixty evocative images using classic cameras such as Leicas, Niccas, and Zorkis.

The exhibition is not just about technology – it is about community, learning, and friendship. The photographers, ranging in age from their mid-thirties to their sixties, have grown together, sharing knowledge and encouraging each other to experiment with new and vintage film stocks, and even process their own films.

Each photograph tells a unique story, inviting visitors to journey through moments of shadow and light, and to reflect on the beauty of slowing down and embracing the grain of analogue photography.
