Description

The WORTHLESSTUDIOS Photographer In Residence (PIR) program is a unique 1-month-long photography residency taking place inside an Airstream trailer converted into a Darkroom.

PIR gives analog photographers and photography-based artists exclusive access to the Airstream darkroom to process film and make new work.

Due to the mobile nature of the Airstream, artists in residence gain direct access to a community or place they wish to document, maximizing their use of the darkroom and creating a body of work that is site-specific.

In residence, artists will create 10 original artworks.

In 2026, seven artists will participate in a one-month residency from March to September.
