EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING & COLLABORATION

FALL 2020

DIVERGENCE EXHIBITION: ONLINE

During the Fall 2020 semester, students in ART 423/523: Advanced Photography Seminar have been working on individual bodies of work that engage with interdisciplinary practices, including installation, large-format prints through digital and analog photography, video, and bookmaking. These artists have worked to translate the work from an in-person to an online exhibition. The exhibition addresses a multitude of ideas motivated by personal interests and questions. Each student's final project represents a deep-dive into one's creative practice both through engagement and reworking of their visual work, reflecting on their practice, and writing about their project throughout the semester. The work will be available online for one-year. Artists exhibited include: Jordan Beishir, Hannah Urquhart, Nigel Hilgert, Paul Lacefield, Katie Patton, Kristopher Keller, Joanna Hurless, and Rosalind Williams.

The SIUE students then responded conceptually and technically with their own photos. The mail exchange continued for four rounds, creating a conversation between photographs. Both classes met via Skype to discuss the project at its conclusion. The College of Arts and Sciences featured an article about the collaboration. Exhibited: February-March, 2020: SIUE 2nd Floor Display, 3rd Floor Gallery, Bartlett Center for the Visual Arts, Stillwater, Oklahoma.
