Bryce Camp

Bryce R. Camp is from Amory, Mississippi, and is the son of Bryan and Michelle Camp.

“Death can come in an instant, and how people react can be beautiful. In my series, I would like people to slow down and think of how the objects left by people represent a whole life and not just a cross on the side of the road.”

Hailey Farrington-Bentil

Hailey P. Farrington-Bentil is from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and is the daughter of Robert Bentil and Charonda Farrington.

“My fine art photography is to help people re-evaluate how they perceive their body and the bodies around them before judging. We are as beautiful in creation as the flowers that grow in your garden. Just as we wouldn’t criticize, judge, and compare the trees and flowers outside, let us not criticize, judge, and compare our bodies to the ones next to them. Let us be unique and beautiful in creation.”

Kyler Moore

Kyler L. Moore is from Columbus, Mississippi, and is the son of Darcel Brandon and Kendrick Moore.

“Throughout my series of photographs, I altered spaces such as domestic settings, public schools, and gas stations. In doing so, I captured common places that have been made strange due to the way I have staged each photograph. In doing so, my photographs acted as open-ended narratives that triggered different emotions and memories.”
