Tolerance: Challenge, Perception, And Social Stigmas Defined Through Visual Communications., Ursula Moore Bryant

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

My explorations and journey through life have led me to discover a connection in my work and responsibility as a visual communicator. My objective of communicating challenge, perception, and social stigmas through informed stories of individual lives is to provoke questions and spark moments of awareness in viewers.

The Land - A New Topographic Study Of Home, Jacob Croft Botter

LSU Master's Theses

They present a panorama that serves as a poignant reminder of the natural world that demands our respect and appreciation for what it has to offer. At the same time, this cannon of imagery contains man, or a visual representation of man, and his efforts. My pictures are not an outsider's observation of …


Hallowed Halls: Abandoned Schools Of Louisiana, Lauren Q. Greathouse Jan 2007

Hallowed Halls: Abandoned Schools Of Louisiana, Lauren Q. Greathouse

The images are meant to suggest a contrast between what …
