Fresh Focus

Fresh Focus is a community for graduate photographers where they can seek peer criticism and support for their creative endeavours. The aim of the group is simple – to bring fresh practitioners together in a focused and supportive environment with the intention of fuelling critical engagement, promoting good working practices and connecting them to the wider photographic community.

Projects

Each year we work on a variety of partnership projects, such as artist residencies and commissions, in order to offer more opportunities for those working within the field of photography.
