Mary Maki, Victoria Mc- Laughlin, Joseph Mercado, Joseph Moche, Rolla Parks, Chistopher Pineda, Olivia Ricketts, Ruth Salazar, Madeleine Salvay, Becky Savell, Cristina Serrano and Kaela Watso.
Students are using the medium of photography to find their voice as they navigate private and public life in this exploration of self, time and place, event curators say.
The Moorpark College photography program teaches the technical and aesthetic principles of fine art and commercial photography as students learn to work in a traditional black-and-white laboratory as well as with new digital software and equipment.
The art displayed in “Finding Our Voices” showcase the skills and techniques that are being explored within the photography department.
