Topics: ICP Photography: Home and The Places We Live

Catalog description

Home and the Places We Live is an exploration of house, home, identity, family, and history through still life photography. Students will create still life photographs in the places where they spend the most time. We will pay attention to light, balance, object, and narrative in the singular image. In addition to making images, critiques are essential part of the learning process in the course and are an opportunity for us all to come together with fresh eyes to explore how the work functions, and how your ideas align with the work’s impact on the viewer. Students will look at the work of contemporary artists and consider their own work in relation to these innovative image makers. In addition to attending all 10 class sessions, students are required to complete a writing project with the ICP Program Coordinator, Derek Stroup. Students need provide their own camera. A DSLR or iphone camera is acceptable for this course. Students with questions about the course or equipment can contact The ICP Program Coordinator, Derek Stroup by email: [email protected] All skill levels are welcome.
