Senior Photography Light Painting Workshop at Cockatoo Island

On a magical winter evening under the moonlight, Senior Photography students embarked on an adventurous ferry ride to Cockatoo Island for a light painting workshop led by the renowned Australian photographer Peter Solness. Guided by Mr. Solness, the students collaborated to create imaginative light portraits of each other, utilising coloured torches and long exposure photography. From ninja silhouettes to abstract figure sculptures, they skilfully transformed the island’s abandoned industrial spaces into canvases for their creative expression.
