Fabrica De Fotos is a photography club of students and mentors embodying different cultures and generations, building unity through photography. Formed during the covid-19 pandemic, a group of students meets once a week through zoom with a mentor to discuss different photography methods and learn about the talent in our community.
Covid-Topia is a photograph exhibition based on how covid has affected us individually and as a community. Each student and mentor are exhibiting several photographs each, based on their experience with the pandemic.
I have three pieces on display for this exhibit the first is “The Picnic”, this piece reminds me of the loneliness some have experienced during covid. The second piece called “100” is the matriarch of a local family celebrating her 100th birthday sitting isolated surrounded by markers of her age. The final piece “29S” is a fading, but still in use railroad bridge. This photograph reminds of the travel most of us are missing out on during this pandemic.
