May Gallery Exhibition, ‘Exposure: GRHS Photography Showcase & Honors Spotlight’
For the month of May, The Friends of the Glen Rock Public Library Gallery will feature the photography of Glen Rock High School students, led by teacher Mara Siegel.
The show includes an Honors Photography Portfolio Showcase featuring Artists: Maya Bickel, Callie Roberts, Rose McGoey, Isadora Goncalves Messuti, Olivia Rodriguez, Lindsay Schassberger and Eli Bashan. In the words of Photography teacher Mara Siegel, “Each Honors Photography student has developed a personal portfolio, curating images that reflect their unique interests, artistic voices, and evolving technical skills. From conceptual storytelling to refined visual studies, these photographs are the result of sustained inquiry and creative risk-taking. Students were challenged to think deeply about what they wanted to say, and how best to say it through the lens. The resulting portfolios offer a diverse and compelling range of perspectives, united by a shared commitment to craft and expression.”
In Story of You, students crafted visual essays that explore their identities through the people, places, and objects that hold meaning in their lives. Participating Artists: Isabel Kelly, Dylan Mangaroo, Abigail McDevitt, Gabrielle Pannacciulli, Alex Samuel, Kylie Campbell, Jay Kreibich, Rachel Park, Natalie Pugliese, Joseph Silva, Colleen Martin, Andrew Davidoff, Tyler Roman and Uri Bashan. This series invites viewers into the personal narratives of our students, who used photography as a tool for self-reflection and expression.
The exhibition will be on view May 2nd- June 13th
Please join the Friends of the Glen Rock Public Library in celebrating the student photographers participating in the exhibition with a reception Sunday May 4, 2-4pm at the Glen Rock Public Library.
