Teaching & Lectures<\/h1>\n

Masterclasses, invited talks, and professional mentorship<\/p>\n<\/header>\n

\n

Teaching has been a continuous part of the practice \u2014 not as a separate career, but as an extension of the same questions that drive the photographic work. Lectures and seminars have been delivered at universities, cultural institutions, and photography organisations across Turkey, Germany, Cyprus, and online internationally. A chronological selection of past events is included further down the page.<\/p>\n

A new masterclass programme \u2014 focused on figure photography, light-driven practice, and long-form series development \u2014 is currently being prepared for launch. Sessions will be offered in limited numbers and will address an audience of practicing photographers and advanced students with prior working foundation.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

Upcoming Masterclass Formats<\/h2>\n

The Architecture of the Body<\/h3>\n

A masterclass on figure photography as sculptural practice. Sessions cover hard-light setup, scale distortion through framing, tonal discipline in black and white, and the slow work of building a long-term project around a single sustained question. For photographers with prior figure work experience. Small group format.<\/p>\n

Light as Medium<\/h3>\n

A technical and conceptual session on light-driven photographic practice \u2014 continuous light, ultraviolet pigments, long exposure, and in-camera optical intervention. Participants work with studio setups that produce distinctive visual outcomes not achievable through post-production. Includes live demonstration and individual feedback.<\/p>\n

Building a Photographic Series<\/h3>\n

A one-to-one mentorship format for photographers developing a personal long-form series. Covers conceptual scaffolding, visual consistency across time, editing and sequencing, and preparing work for exhibition or publication. Conducted in a limited number of sessions by application.<\/p>\n

Launch dates and application details will be announced through direct correspondence. To register interest in any of the above formats, please write to contact@meryemaydin.co<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
