Through the medium of photography, this collegiate group of photographers, who are also co-workers, explore the concept of Home.

We work for an animation studio in Portland, Oregon. Before the Covid pandemic shut down we came in person to the office. Since the first shut down our office has been mostly remote. We formed connections in this new remote work world over our love of photography. We are all creative people and although photography is not our career medium, it is another way to explore, express, and grow in a visual medium. We shoot digital and analog, using an array of cameras from DSLR to vintage, point-and-click plastic to phone cameras, with a range of post editing. We started to share our photos with each other through an online chat tool at work. This started a group that sought to encourage each other and share our lives. As time passed, some moved out of the PDX area while others stayed. The world has changed, but our friendship has grown deeper and our view of what "Home" is has been viscerally impacted.

Below is a sampling of works from this show. Please stop by the Center to see the entire show! You can also support artists and the Center by purchasing work! Please call or stop by for more information.
