NEW CLASS ON SUNDAYS: “Photographing Intimacy / Choreographing Space” with Chloe Scout Nix @cscout starts May 24 Photography can be a very intimate and vulnerable medium to visualize your inner monologue — especially when working with themes of family, (self-)portraiture, and personal relationships. And over a lifespan, your sense of intimacy and relationship to space — and how to express it in a photographic practice — can fluctuate with growth, life experience, a changing world, and aging. Through weekly lectures, photography/writing prompts, and selected readings, you’ll be encouraged to apply what you discover, with the goal of deepening your work. limited to 8 students only!

We’re pleased to have @cscout , a long time member of our critique community, as a new darkroom member 🗣️ Chloe Scout Nix is an artist and performer originally from Waxahachie, Texas, but now based in Brooklyn, New York. She received her Master in Photography from Pratt Institute (Brooklyn, NY) and her Bachelors of Fine Arts in Visual Arts, with a minor in Art History, from Southern Methodist University (Dallas, TX.)  Her conceptual practice explores performative intimacy through acts of performing for the camera, often resulting in self-portraiture. Preoccupied with how women’s bodies are consumed as narrative material within film and photography, she turns these tropes onto herself and questions what it means for her to wear certain characters.  Nix is the recipient of the Dallas Museum of Art’s Clare Hart DeGolyer Memorial Fund Award (2019) and the Standard Club Award That Makes a Difference (2018). Her 2024 MFA thesis exhibition, sorry for the mess, curated by Jody Graf, was presented at the Pratt Photography Gallery in Brooklyn, with selected works also exhibited at Clamp Gallery in Chelsea as part of Everything Is Something, curated by Allen Frame. In 2025, she presented a solo exhibition of new work created after her masters program, i will kill your daddy, at Zeke’s Projects in Dallas, Texas. She is currently working as an art handler at MoMA PS1 @momaps1 , and works in production at Primary Photographic @primaryphotographic , a film processing lab on the Lower East Side.
