'Big Heads' student photography installation in Carver

Students studying photography in the Department of Art and Art History at Western Washington University  have a public display of images on the second floor of the newly renovated Carver. The exhibition is on view until March 7, 2018.

The display consists of 15 40- by 50-inch images from a project titled ‘Big Heads.’ The Art 371 students utilized the lighting studio and a traditional view camera (4-by-5 film) to explore the genre of portraiture. Working in teams, they created pieces that documented each members’ individual concept.

Featured students include: Reese Bowen (Gig Harbor), Kiya Coon (Kirkland), Simon Froehlich (Anchorage), Andrew Hamilton (Seattle), MacKenzie Hattrup (Kent), Jarita Hui (Bothell), Kiara Koenig-Lee (Bellingham), Luke Larson (Tumwater), Megan McAndie (Sequim), Robert Miller (Bellingham), Franchine Ninh (Mukilteo), Serena Southwick (Renton), Darren Stapley (Perth, Australia), Alisa Williams (Seattle), and Molly Wood-Dorner (Seattle).
