ARTIST STATEMENT

Created by SCA students in their first year of study, the works within this show employ light as a material, using it as a tool in a variety of ways; from manipulating aperture in traditional-style photography to adopting a ‘light wand’ to create light painting photographs, and engaging with cyanotype printing which involves the use of light-sensitive paper.
