Upheaval: A Kinship Portfolio Share with Frances Bukovsky

 

Upheaval: A Kinship Portfolio Share with Frances Bukovsky

Join us via Zoom on Wednesday, August 12th at 7 pm EDT

Join us for an interactive evening of portfolio sharing, feedback, and conversation about what questions are most helpful when asking for feedback. Frances Bukovsky will be presenting their developing project, Upheaval, which unfolded over several years of photographing both northern and southern Appalachia. Here, photography becomes a process of finding home in both body and place. 

Frances is at a point in this project where they are seeking thoughtful feedback and are curious what insights the Kinship Community may have for this project. For this event, Frances will share a portfolio and the Kinship community is encouraged to thoughtfully engage with a series of questions presented throughout the evening.

Together we will consider how the questions we ask, both as artists and viewers, can deepen our relationship to the images we create, share, and engage with.

Frances Bukovsky is a photographer and illustrator located in Marshall, North Carolina. They are interested in the ways we define, value, and relate to both human and more-than-human bodies. Frances focuses on the process of photography as a way to explore embodiment and relationship, often beginning with their own body. They draw from ecology, queer, and disability studies to weave intimate experiences together within broader contexts to highlight the interdependent relationships between all beings.
