Photography

Alumna Manjari Sharma's project Darshan continues to garner much-deserved attention. Most recently, her photograph of the Hindu goddess Maa Lazmi(or Lakshmi) appeared on the cover of the Nov. 2 issue of Forbes India.

The magazine covered the 100 richest Indians, so it is no surprise that Sharma's hyper-elaborately staged photograph of Lakshmi, who is a symbol of wealth and prosperity, was chosen as a visual representation of the topic.

Photography alumna Manjari Sharma (2004) will show her work in a group exhibition, Social Order: Photographs from Iran, India, and Afghanistan, at the Photo Center in Seattle, WA, Oct. 26–Dec. 15.

CCAD alumna Rachel Ridgley (CCAD 2010) had her photography and personal story featured in Wolfdogs magazine Vol.2, Issue 3.

The Photography alumna works in both fine art and documentary style photography specializing in canines. Her lifetime love for dogs led her to specialize in dog photography. She has done work with several publications, fashion designers, and pet shelters. Ridgley does not limit herself to family pets and has hands-on experience photographing wolves, foxes, and even dingoes.

Alumna Wong Wo Bik (CCAD 1977) has work included in the group exhibition Memory and Fiction at Blindspot Gallery in Hong Kong.

The exhibition features selected work from prominent female photographers. Bik's photographs are of Hong Kong’s historical and notable landscapes and come from a body of work she developed in the 1980s.

Alumna (CCAD 2004) Manjari Sharma's project Darshan is in full swing and getting attention from The New York Times.

The Times' blog post provided an update to the project, which Sharma started nearly a year ago.

What does a restaurant mogul, a pin-up girl, the year 2012, and CCAD have in common? Ryan Monroe is the answer.
