To produce and frame fourteen large-scale finished prints from my photographic project The Shape of Memory. This work explores ephemeral and physical ways that memory exists as both story and object. Having the opportunity to produce and frame this project would have a profound effect on my artistic growth. 2: Two pop-up exhibitions. I will do two pop-up exhibitions meant to engage viewers who may not otherwise be exposed to art. I will also apply for larger exhibitions at galleries and museums once the work is completely produced.
Printed and framed 14 large-scale prints for exhibition renamed The Afterlife of Objects and Places. Producing this work was a monumental opportunity. This work has been shown at three venues so far and will be exhibited in July at the Hopkins Art Center. Realizing this project has expanded it into new installation and video-based directions as well. 2: One much longer gallery exhibition at Silverwood Park Gallery from Jan. eleven - Feb. 28th, 2018. See amendment for venue change - this exhibition exceeded my hopes for the two pop-up exhibitions. Silverwood draws those who would otherwise not have access to art. Several groups of veterans meet there too and the reach of the project was incredible.
