Humanities Arts Cultural Stu 0223 - Beyond the Printed Photograph

This course will encourage students to push their photographs beyond the digital realm and have them exist as tangible objects. Drawing on the conceptual significance of intentionality when it comes to digital output, students will be introduced to adjustment layers in Adobe Photoshop where they will edit their images and gain an understanding of digital workflow. Students will use Epson printers to create high quality prints from their existing image files and will have the chance to experiment with different paper textures and sizing options. This course will look at examples of contemporary LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC artists who are pushing the boundaries of how photography exists outside the computer. Class time will consist of lectures, group discussions from assigned readings, in-class weekly assignments, and group critiques. Keywords:Photography, Photoshop, Printing

In/Justice Lab/Materials fee: $65 Students should expect to spend 8 hours weekly on work and preparation outside of class time.
