Cultivating Commonalities: A Photographic Exchange

A unique collaboration between high school students in Accra, Ghana and metro-Phoenix, Arizona was created in conjunction with the Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art’s exhibition, Lyle Ashton Harris: Blow Up. Students from both countries took photographs in response to activities led by NYU interns in Ghana and ASU interns in Arizona. The photographs and dialogue created a cultural connection between the students. The resulting photographs will be exhibited at SMoCA February - May, 2008.
