Vernacular Photography class where we will engage with collected images.

Collecting vernacular photography like everyday images, family snapshots, postcards, and yearbook photos are significant because they document our daily life. They filled historical gaps and even though it has an ephemeral nature, keeping them as a collection is a critical act of preservation. Vernacular photography carries stories, whether family milestones or ordinary moments. Despite them being personal, these images evoke universal emotions like love, loss, nostalgia, which resonates with a broad audience. It's an open space for reinterpretation, sparking new ideas and new artistic explorations.
