OX Senior Show

Pause | to Begin

OX: CIAS Senior Show 2007 was a created by myself and good friend Susan Morelock to give graduating senior art students the opportunity to share their creations with not only the RIT community, but also Rochester at large. Inspired from the thought that artistic endeavors are more important and signifigant to an art student than simply recieving a diploma, OX was the most memorable moment from commencement weekend.

To supplement the exhibition that was juried by RIT's finest faculty members, an exhibition catalogue was created as a keepsake for the show. In a way, it served as an art school yearbook.

Pause, to Begin is a unique photography competition born in discussions about the direction of contemporary photography today.

Alongside friend and photographer David Wright Pause, to Begin was founded by us in late October 2007. Since that time it has grown and developed with signifigant help from our team.

The application deadline is April 1, 2008, so please apply soon.

Also, as a part of Pause, to Begin I have been making blog posts on the Pause, to Begin Blog since early Jaunary 2008.

July | 2008
The month began with the privilege of assisting Cig Harvey for a week in her workshop called The Personal Story. Then, I assisted for photojournalist David Wells. The month came to an end as I assisted for Jeff Rosenheim, curator in the department of photographs at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The class was a treat, and meeting Jeff was all I could have asked for.

June | 2008
Back from the Pause, to Begin trip! I have recently moved into a new house and resumed working at the Maine Media Workshops as a teaching assistnat for the summer. I also have copious amounts of film to sort through. It is going to be a busy summer.
