Workshops and Collaborations
Sound to Image
VCFA Workshop | Montpelier, VT | 2018
A week-long workshop with high school students at the Vermont College of Fine Arts. Students recorded sounds from nature, then converted those sounds to images using a computer algorithm. The images were then projected together to form a large-scale collaborative mural.
Collections + Maps
VCFA Elementary Methods Workshop | Montpelier, VT | 2018
After defining their “ideal neighborhood,” students set about collecting natural materials and found objects. Once gathered, the objects were arranged and photographed as a “map.” The maps were then photographed from different angles to teach students about photographic perspective.
Design Thinking
VCFA Workshop | Montpelier, VT | 2018
In this collaboratively taught workshop, students brainstormed topics of social issues to research and communicate. Each student then created their own “zine” to pass out around their community.
I Am
Fred Finch Youth Center | San Diego, CA | 2013
Working with homeless youth in San Diego through the organization A Reason To Survive (ARTS). Students created prints corresponding to poems they wrote about themselves. A collaboration with poet and writer Andrea Davies.
My Story
La Cambalacha | Santiago, Guatemala | 2010
A month-long photography workshop through the nonprofit La Cambalacha. Students learned about black and white portrait photography. They took self portraits and wrote poems about their hopes for the future.
