BIO Alicia Weissenbach was born in Boise, Idaho and began photography at a young age with a borrowed point-and-shoot camera. She participated in the spring 2018 program abroad at Studio Arts College International in Florence, Italy and in 2019 graduated with a BFA from Cornish College of the Arts in Seattle, Washington. Her practice plays with challenging ideas of what it means to make photographic work through employing elements of light and sculpture. Light is an important part of her practice, and often references the shifting and changing quality of her own childhood memories in which light is an ever present focal point. Alicia has exhibited work at OnArt Gallery in Florence, Italy and has participated in shows at the Closet Gallery, Main Cornish Gallery and L-Space Gallery in Seattle, Washington. |
