21 Years, Fiona Carlsen

.RAW Journal of Art and Design

This year for my birthday, my Dad and I went on a trip to Las Vegas. He used to live there, so he showed me around to all the cool spots he remembered from the ’80s. Here are some photos from Red Rocks National Monument in Nevada. The left ones were taken on 120 film and the right ones are taken on a 35mm point & shoot.

Posters As Journals, Nick Imbriale

.RAW Journal of Art and Design

Digital art enables me to subjectively express myself, which I sometimes yearn for when doing graphic design work. These posters serve as an index of my state of mind at the moments they were created. Although abstract, my work uses typography, shape, and light to communicate specific yet tenuous moods and atmospheres that can stand in for my journal entries.

Chemical Painting, Street Lights & Brew Year's Eve, Lela Brodie, Eric Hatch

.RAW Journal of Art and Design

Chemical Painting

The black and white images are 35mm film prints I developed using “chemical painting.” I created the effect by dripping the developer onto the tray in order to only expose parts of the images. I like this process because you only have so much control over the outcome and no two prints will ever process exactly the same.

Street Lights

I shot these portraits in winter quarter when it felt like every day I was waking up to rain. I decided to bring in some of those elements into the studio, and I experimented with gel lighting to …

Fresh Croissant, Antique Bisque, Caramel Swirl: An Installation

When I was six years old I vividly remember asking my mom why my skin was a different color than hers, and without hesitation, she told me people paid money to make their skin look golden brown like mine. She told me to be proud of it. Her words form the backbone to this piece, which aims to embody the experience of growing up in a biracial home, in a home where my mother was white and my father was Filipino.

I believe being biracial allows me to experience nuanced perspectives, not …


Girls. Girls. Girls, Kyle Kinnare Oct 2020

Girls. Girls. Girls, Kyle Kinnare

.RAW Journal of Art and Design

This series was inspired by my love for fashion while also emphasizing the beauty in all the females that I photograph. I wanted to have an all-female series because I feel like media portrays girls in the wrong way a lot of the time. I had so much fun shooting and creating a fun environment where all the models felt they could be themselves. I hope the photos make the viewers understand that these are real people and that everyone is beautiful in their own way.

San Francisco After The Cherry Blossom Festival April 21st, 2019, Tanner Johnston

.RAW Journal of Art and Design

A rare day off from work and one impulsive three and a half hour drive later and I found myself in San Francisco. The crowds at the Cherry Blossom Festival were immense and the parade and pop- up shops were fun, but only once the sun began to set and I had left Japantown to explore the rest of the city did I find scenes that truly attracted my eye.

Aloe, Anther, Horned Poppy

My favorite things to photograph are things found in nature. I strive to capture the simple beauty of the natural world and like to focus on small details that at first glance may go unnoticed. For this project, I decided to take my camera and a macro lens to the botanical gardens to capture the naturally occurring abstract forms found in nature.

Act Drop

I have been working with themes of white consumption of black suffering in regards to American history. In this work, I wanted to defamiliarize the stage and help viewers understand the ways …

These are a few photos of some athletes I got to work with in my time at Cal Poly. I took this opportunity to shoot these athletes in a studio, rather than in the outdoors where I usually capture them in action.

Village Royalty, 2018, Oil Pastel, 11”x17”

Inspired by the colorful lights emitted from the flames of candles during Hanukkah. What may seem as a simple tradition in any religion, culture, or family is cherished for those who keep those traditions. For Hanukkah, lighting the candles is a tradition and ritual that is precious to those who observe the holiday.

Reformation of a Generation, 2017, oil on canvas, 36”x24”

With each generation, the newest learn from the previous. This painting draws details from the changing era as it is handed down. The figures draw detail from my earlier works and are …

Everything All At Once

Lessons I’ve learned lately: enjoy your problems, crafting is the best form of stress relief, and the weirder, the better.

Fleurir

I feel so inspired by the makers in our community. As a photographer, I love collaborating with local artisans to take photos that not only show off their products but also resonate with who they are as humans. This shoot with Fleurir Goods was inspired by earth, craft, and sisterhood.

As the year comes to an end, I wanted to finish with one last project us- ing extremely soft lighting, which is what I am not as comfortable with. I am pleased with the way these came out because the images evoke a sense of delicacy and purity. Thank you Cal Poly for these 4 years of learning and self-realization.

Adventure Awaits

These photos were taken on my vacation to Hawaii. Upon taking a heli- copter ride I got to see where lava was once flowing, but where it now sits dormant, still steaming and red. Along a winding narrow road we came upon what is called the “Grand Canyon of Hawaii,” which is full of deep slots in the hill sides and marvelous views of land stretching to the ocean. The nature of these beautiful islands will never cease to amaze me.
