New York Film Academy Student Photography Exhibition – Environment: The Dominican Republic

For years NYFA has been organizing and leading travel expeditions for both the School’s Photography and Documentary Film Departments. The work chosen for this exhibition at DREFF 2016 is from NYFA students that have traveled to the Dominican Republic in the past two years. The simple assignment to the students was to tell visual stories about their experience in the DR. Some of the work is classic landscape, portraying the environment in its natural beauty; other work takes a hard look at how the environment is treated, or mistreated, by its residents. What they presented is evocative, passionate, compelling, and visually interesting, whether it was through portraits, landscapes, social commentary, or images of food.

Place: Funglode
Date: 13 – 18 September
Time: 24/7
