How can you find your creative voice as an artist?

Develop Career Talks by industry professionals offer insight into the different avenues a creative career can take.

For this online talk, artist Myah Jeffers talks us through her multidisciplinary career in photography, film and theatre and how they feed into each other.

We hear about why Myah chooses to use solely black and white photography for her personal projects and look more deeply at her ongoing project Returning to Soil.

There will be an opportunity to ask questions and join the wider discussion about working across several disciplines. This is an online talk and the link will be sent upon booking. 

This event is part of our Develop programme. Develop is a three-year programme (2023-2026) that supports and commissions emerging creatives aged 18-24 through a series of talks and workshops around a photography-based outcome each year.
