Consisting of student works from Professor Ruiz' Intermediate Digital Imaging class Fall ‘24, this exhibition serves as a medium to display the complexity of the human body, the natural, and the built environment, while highlighting the uniqueness of individual gestural movement. The form of the human body acts as a genetic landscape unique to each individual. Similar to how one surveils the minute details of a panoramic landscape, this series of short studies documents the importance of point of view while highlighting the uniqueness of the individual subject.
