EXHIBITION DETAILS
Human Being
March 25 - April 23, 2011
Photographer Phil Borges was assigned the difficult task of jurying this exhibition. For over twenty-five years Borges has lived with and documented indigenous and tribal cultures around the world. Through his work, he strives to create a heightened understanding of the issues faced by people in the developing world. Borges teaches and lectures internationally and is co-founder of Blue Earth Alliance, a 501c3 that sponsors photographic projects focusing on endangered cultures and threatened environments. He writes: “For this exhibition, I wanted to go beyond my own self-imposed restrictions and look for a variety of ways that human emotion could be portrayed. The variety and strength of the submissions we received were both refreshing and inspirational for me.”
