Join us for the second Open Show Santa Cruz! Hear from five photographers as they share the back stories of their photos.
Each photographer will show photos projected on a screen and speak for 10 minutes---the audience is invited to ask questions and comment during the presentations to make it interactive.
Come, participate, and help us build the Santa Cruz photography community!
PRESENTERS
Street From The Heart
Angelica Glass
This is a project I've been working on for the past 3.5 years, where I'm walking the length of every street in the County of Santa Cruz.
The Teenage Aperture Of Emotions
Emma Schrank
When I first began my journey as a photographer, I noticed that the most empowering form of art for me is my work in portraiture. As I began further down this road, I saw that the reason I was so drawn to portraits is that the subjects I have all around me, teenagers, are driven by raw emotion.
Stock Photography
Carolyn Lagattuta
I would like to talk about the various reasons I shoot and what makes a good stock photo.
Hit By Lightning Music Video
Amy Pine
This music video goes with a song that I wrote that speaks to the experience of those impacted by sexual violence. As a therapist and musician/songwriter, I created this visual story based on my knowledge of what survivors go through. Produced entirely in Santa Cruz, a message of hope and healing.
