Abby Gawman

Since having a passion for photography from a young age, my love for this skill has grown as I have gotten older and merged with my love for youth rave culture and fashion. Through a variety of media, including 35mm film, video, and collage that I have infused with my own unique style, my work demonstrates my passion for this. I had the chance to put these abilities to use in my third year of study on a project where I created a visual report called "The Digital dance," which discussed the issues that the rave industry is currently facing and how social media has affected it. I produced an outcome including a self-help book and installation, using a lot of study and my own abilities to produce a solution for this major issue in the scene today. My work has improved over the years, and I have a better understanding of what Gen Z like, while also making sure my work is appropriate for other audiences, as working with other creatives has made me more gregarious and experienced individual.
