2024 BFA Art Photography Annual Reception

January 25 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

Light Work presents the 2024 BFA Art Photography Annual of photographs by seniors from the Art Photography program in the College of Visual and Performing Arts at Syracuse University. The exhibition takes place in the Jeffrey J. Hoone Gallery from January 19th – March 8th, 2024.  We will host a reception with the exhibiting artists on Thursday, January 25th, at 6:30p.m. The in-person reception is free and open to the public and includes refreshments.

The exhibiting artists are Keming Chen, Madison Chloe, Zhiyu Feng, Siya Hu, Megan Ivy, Megan Jonas, Yu-Hsia Liu, Tyber Longacre, Chika Winston Ma, Clara Neville, Hieu Minh Nguyen, Avery Wild, Suhao Yang, and Joe Zhao. Nelson Chan served as juror, selecting Siya Hu as Best in Show.

Associate Professor Laura Heyman, coordinator of the Art Photography BFA program, writes:

Each spring, seniors in the art photography program exhibit a selection of images from their senior thesis at Light Work. Senior thesis is a yearlong (or longer) in-depth photographic exploration of a subject chosen by the students. The open-ended nature of the process can be a challenge, and the work often changes radically between the beginning of September, when students start their projects, and December, when the work is installed for exhibition. Students choose, edit, and print the images in collaboration and with the assistance Light Work’s curatorial staff and master printers. The BFA Art Photography Annual is not only the first exhibition for many of our students, but also an important learning opportunity for them.  In addition to giving students the space to imagine how their thesis work might develop over the next several months, the Art Photography Annual introduces their thesis work to their peers, the local community and the renowned curators and critics who jury the exhibition.
