Ōtautahi's community centred photo spaces

Photosynthesis is a fully-volunteer inclusive non-profit that runs an accessible studio for hire and a photo darkroom in Ōtautahi Christchurch.

We enable and support visual artists with the tools, and spaces they require to create high-quality art, affordably.

Upcoming events

At Photosynthesis, artists can have a sense of belonging with their community, growing confidence and technical skill.

We hold regular workshops, events, and artist residencies.
