Towson photography students will be taking their work out of the Center for the Arts, off campus and down York Road on April 18. A class of upper-level photography students organized the gallery show, which will be on display in the Towson Commons gallery.
The show will open with a small opening reception at 7 p.m. in the gallery. Analog photography and digital photographs, as well as digitally manipulated photos will be on display in the exhibit.
The gallery will feature one or two photos from everyone in the photography class, according to a student director for the event and senior photography major Nicole Oidick. Oidick also said that just her class will be featured in the gallery.
"It's all students from the class. We produced the whole thing," she said.
In addition to her duties as a director, Oidick said she will also have photos of her own on display.
"My pieces are an investigation of domestic spaces. They're portraits of people. They're kind of disturbing. In all of them [the people] are covering their faces with a mask or a bag, just to make the people's identity ambiguous," Oidick said. "[It's] so that more people can identify with the people and their spaces."
Oidick said that students should come view the gallery in order to show support for their peers.
"The whole thing was created by us," she said. "It's affiliated with the school because we all go there, but they're not really running it. It's just good to support the students."
The gallery will run from April 18 to May 16 in Towson Commons. Admission is free.
