Sam Anderson is photographer and graphic designer living in Minnesota. They will receive their B.A. from Â̲èÖ±²¥ in May of 2019. Their work focuses on nature and landscapes especially focusing on sunsets.<\/span><\/p>\n I choose this medium because I have trouble with my memory, so taking pictures has helped me over the years. Photography has become a passion for me to pursue and show the world what I have to offer. Photography has always been relaxing for me especially taking pictures of nature. I selected the subject of the sun because it is a consistent element in my life. Each night that I get to see sunset after a long day is relaxing for me seeing all the colors of the sunset is relaxing to me. The sun demonstrates the raw beauty that a singular object holds.<\/span><\/p>\n The sun is constant in our lives and is the symbol of enlightenment. I choose this project to give the point of view not only from where I live but across the world. This proves we are all human and stare in wonder at the center of our universe, our sun. By exploring sunsets, I have realized this world isn\u2019t so big. I can express myself without using words, by photographing this object that is a part of everyone\u2019s life.<\/span><\/p>\n The artist Penelope Umbrico inspired me to do this project because how she took images of sunsets from Flickr and put them into a grid captivated me. Using typology, I can create an experience that connects us humans around the world. Through technology now a days, people have the ability to take pictures on their phones and share their image of the sunset all around the world. I use those images to create my grid of sunsets around the world.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" January 28 \u2013 February 7, 2019 Gallery 720, Christensen Center SENIOR SHOW SAM ANDERSON<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":42,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[266],"tags":[250,283,282,265],"class_list":["post-10024","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-senior-show","tag-250","tag-anderson","tag-sam","tag-senior-show"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/galleries\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10024","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/galleries\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/galleries\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/galleries\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/42"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/galleries\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10024"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/galleries\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10024\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11684,"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/galleries\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10024\/revisions\/11684"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/galleries\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10024"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/galleries\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10024"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/galleries\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10024"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
