Founded by Hannah Fletcher, the Sustainable Darkroom is a worldwide artist-led movement led in conjunction with Edd Carr and Alice Cazenave. Its central aim is to transform our approach to photographic materials, and their historically unsustainable nature. From toxic chemicals, to silver particles and beyond - photography and eco-friendly seem at hopeless odds. But the Sustainable Darkroom provide education, research, and arts opportunities to promote and develop sustainable alternatives to analogue photography.

Green Hacks is a series of artist-made how-to videos unpacking practical tips to educate, inform and inspire their community. From non-toxic analogue development techniques, to DIY lens upcycling, to lengthening camera lifespans through alternative software, each short video offers a creative but concrete step, demonstrating how to produce/show/think about and make art in more sustainable ways. Small actions with significant impacts.

Commissioned and released by The Photographers’ Gallery in collaboration with Tabakalera, Donostia - San Sebastián, Spain.
