Notes

Abstract:
This thesis contains information on the exhibition, “Ancient and Sacred Sites in South Florida: A Photographic Investigation,” displayed at the Barry University Andy Gato Gallery in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Fine Arts degree in Photography. The show consisted of thirty photographic prints. The thesis begins with my Autobiography. The influence of seven visual artists is then discussed, including examples of work by these artists, pictured alongside examples of my own artwork. The artists discussed are: Nadar, Carleton Watkins, Alfred Stieglitz, Georgia O’Keeffe, Clyde Butcher, Michael Kenna and Laurence Gartel. The Processes and Technical Information section includes a diagram of the gallery showing the layout of works in the exhibit and includes information about the technical aspects of the images. Personal Aesthetics/Philosophy includes a general introduction to the essential concept behind the body of work, and an Artist’s Statement summarizing the basic ideas and intention of the exhibition.
