First Senior Show: Photography
6:00 PM – 8:00 PM
Wadleigh Library, Chester College
Featuring the works of Ashley Moore, Kevin Brassard, and Pauline Meredith.
Ashley Moore shot a roll of film for each building her photos depict, carefully following the natural progression of the human eye through a space. She then printed and pieced the photos together in order. The result is a series of images that appear both fragmented and flowing.
Kevin Brassard’s photographs examine the human self through form and relationships in three evocative series using photographic collage of separate naked bodies. His work is both an experiment in medium and a study in human identity.

Homeless - K. Naomi Hann
almost invisible
A lone presence
Slumps on the wooden bench
Stunted by struggle in craggy terrains
Clipped and pruned too small for her life
Now a little bonsai mudwoman
All her pebbles in a plastic bag
