BEYOND FILM brings together photographers connected by a shared passion for analogue image-making. Featuring works created on 35mm, medium format, large format, instant film and alternative photographic processes, the exhibition showcases the diversity, creativity and enduring relevance of photography beyond the digital image.

Presented by Optik Oldschool, the exhibition celebrates analogue photography as a vibrant and evolving medium. The works on display reflect a wide range of perspectives, techniques and visual languages, united by a commitment to the material process of making photographs.

Alongside the exhibition, talks, events and community gatherings will offer opportunities to connect, exchange ideas and explore the many ways analogue photography continues to inspire today.
