Jimmy Joe Roche

Jimmy Joe Roche Work from his oeuvre. While not an essay on Roche, it is very fitting, and he is linked later in the article (not included). “Imagine a technological stew. In this big bubbling cauldron are piles of images, jpegs and mpegs of Super Mario Bros , Thundercats and Care Bears, strangely scratched 80s […]

Klea McKenna

Klea McKenna Work from Slow Burn. “Klea McKenna describes her series Slow Burn as “an ongoing series of experiments” in which each image reveals or teaches her something that leads her to the next. This approach—photography as a heuristic process, in which the “eureka” moment of one image pushes us forward toward new discoveries with […]

Katie Shapiro

Katie Shapiro Work from Malibu Sandbags. ““Public Access: extending 25 feet inland from daily high water line.” -California Coastal Commission In Malibu Sandbags I am exploring the cohabitation of nature and man.

Gregory Krum

Gregory Krum Work from …Practice… ____________________________ Three approaches to a fundamental concept:– Devotion to an endeavor.

Ann Woo

Ann Woo Work from her oeuvre. “I photograph things that I can’t stop myself from staring at, almost in an obsessive way. I sometimes have instant inspirations from what I see, but they are not so meaningful to me. I spend most of my time alone and often hide and read ‘self help’ books – […]

Matthew Gamber

Matthew Gamber Work from Any Color You Like. “1 I once taught a color photography class where I had one particular student who would not participate in any class discussions.

Mark Lyon

Mark Lyon Work from Landscapes for the People. “My inspiration for creating photographs stems from finding and documenting peculiar juxtapositions in everyday places. This process often involves the act of rephotographing photographs. My current series, Landscapes for the People, looks at the use of romanticized wallpaper landscape photographs found in everyday environments. These wall sized […]

Lars Tunbjörk

Lars Tunbjörk Work from The Office. “Tunbjörk’s images observe the sterile interiors of nameless business offices that, though different in name, share a lexicon of commercial iconography: neon lights, industrial ventilation systems, thin metal framed windows, computers, filing cabinets, and—most pronouncedly—white and grey cubicles. The series remains firmly grounded in this commercial world with little […]
