Photography

Media Studies alumna Manjari Sharma (CCAD 2004) has a solo exhibition, Darshan: Photographs by Manjari Sharma, at ClampArt in New York City, Sept. 12–Oct. 12, with an artist’s reception Sept. 12, 6–8 p.m.

Associate Professor and Photography alumnus Hiroshi Hayakawa has an exhibition, Paper Pups, at the Bexley Public Library in Bexley, OH, through Aug. 31.

Photography alumnus Chad Hunt (CCAD 1994) had on of his photographs accepted into the permanent collection of Worcester Art Museum in Massachusetts.

The photograph, View from the door of a Blackhawk helicopter over the Kabul River, was taken when he was embedded with U.S. troops at the Korengal outpost in Afghanistan.

After months of voting and deliberation it is time to announce this year's Alumni Award for Excellence winner: Chad Hunt (CCAD 1994).

The Photography alumnus will be honored during CCAD’s Alumni & Family Weekend, taking place Oct. 4–5, and during that time will have an exhibition on campus of his current work.

“Honestly I was very flattered to be nominated,” Hunt said. “CCAD has produced some amazingly talented artists, and I am humbled that my name is in people's minds.”

CCAD president Denny Griffith and Illustration alumna Amanda Hope Cook (CCAD 1999) have work in the group exhibition Photography's Back to the Future, presented by the Ohio Art Council's Riffe Gallery and open through July 7.

Associate Professor and Photography alumnus Hiroshi Hayakawa recently published Paper Pups: 35 Dogs to Copy, Cut & Fold.

The 1995 graduate’s book contains 35 paper dogs ranging from golden retrievers to French bulldogs. Using kirigami, an art similar to origami, the reader can copy a template and follow the steps to create a three-dimensional animal.

Media Studies alumna Manjari Sharma’s project Darshan was recently featured in the Yoga Journal.

The national journal featured the 2004 grad's photograph Lakshmi with a write-up that will also be included in the journal's iPad app.

Four CCAD alumni have their work included in the 13^th annual ImageOhio exhibition organized by Roy G Biv Gallery and on view at The Shot Tower Gallery at Fort Hayes Metropolitan Educational Center, Jan. 18–Feb. 15.

The exhibition is juried by Bill Horrigan, curator at large for the Wexner Center for the Arts. Work includes photographs, projections, and video.
