Join us this coming Thursday, April 7th from 6PM - 9PM for a live photography session with Julius Adorsu! We will have a limited number of tickets available, so be sure to get yours! Each guest will have 4 portraits taken of them on large-format film photography and will also have a chance to see how their film is being developed in-house!

In his own words… “My name is Julius Kwasi Wisdom Adorsu. Instead of calling myself a photographer, I like to think of myself as a creative. For me, the camera is a tool of capturing a moment in time; a flicker of light in space.I went to trade school to study Automotive Technology and began working in the field in 2010. Photography became my freedom in what was an unhappy time. This hobby turned into a passion, and gave me the voice to express my truth. I have worked hard to teach myself through trial and error over the last 10 years. After 5 years shooting digital photography my interest in film grew.

I wanted to learn where it all began, and completely immersed myself. Shooting film has forced me to gain composure in my process due to the limited exposures per roll. This challenge fills me with joy, and has led me to work solely within this medium.

In 2017 I took a creative darkroom course at Orms School of Photography in Cape Town, South Africa. I then began developing prints in a DIY darkroom in the bathroom of our small apartment in Chicago. I am not a fine arts student, but the museums around the world that I have been privileged enough to visit over the past years have become my university. These visits led me to the answers to questions I didn't know I had. It was through the discovery of great masters that my vision became clear. This has been utterly crucial in the growth and development of my art.

My mission: to reduce suffering within humanity by showing the beauty within everyone, and everything. To capture The Essence of Our Existence."
