Seeing the Everyday Differently

The gallery brings together photographic observations and themed mood boards. A Chinese New Year entry and an ice-dyeing feature in February 2011 show how seasonal events and material experiments can become visual starting points.

Earlier features also included an Etsy Front Page Feature in February 2010 and coverage of the EST Weekly Challenge in January 2010.
