Spring 2014 Digital Photography Student Books! Presentations May 6 & May 8!

For anyone interested in getting a sense of what we do in ART225 - Digital Photo II & ART299 - Adv. Independent Study, here are our most recent editions to the collection of books that we have been creating over the past three years. I am really proud of all of the students and their hard work and enthusiasm that has gone into creating these books. The projects in themselves are a strong testament to commitment and their elongated exploration of an idea. These are a real treat. We spend nearly 2/3's of the entire semester working on a body of work that researches & investigates a topic of their choosing and then we work through the process of organizing and shaping our photographs into a book format. We then publish them through blurb.com or sometimes we handmake our books depending on the project. Check 'em out!!

The artists will be giving talks about their work and their creative process on May 6 & 8 from 10-12:50pm in VAB107 at SCC. This is event is free and open to all. Please join us! The more the merrier!
