The 3-dimensional art gallery showcases the work of students in ceramics and mixed media classes.

My vision behind the creative interpretation of the candy bomber was to have a caricature of Colonel Gail S. Halvorsen flying a C-54 skymaster above the decimated city of Berlin. I then added falling candy bars and packs of gum labeled with words of encouragement that were attached to parachutes. Then amongst the rubble, I painted children’s hands reaching out to grab the candy and gum that was dropped from the passing plane... The Candy Bomber is a true hero because his small actions of kindness had resounding impacts for the people of Berlin.

I chose to portray [Florence Kelley]’s role in ending child labor by depicting her leading children out of a cotton mill. The children are worn and nearly faceless, representing how they were viewed as a mere source of labor rather than individual humans in need of care. However, as Kelley brings them out of the darkness of the mill, their features become more distinct, and their 3D paper figures stand out from the piece, making them no longer part of the background, symbolizing how Kelley enabled them to gain their identities.

TAYLOR MALINGER (‘24), “Unsung Heroes” Project, Advanced Mixed Media

Eugene Lazowski was a Polish doctor during the 1940s. During World War 2, Lazowski discovered an injection that would mimic the symptoms of typhus. Even though it was illegal, he snuck into the Jewish ghettos and injected Jewish people with the phony vaccine. These people would therefore get sick with symptoms that looked like typhus, but it was less contagious and deadly. With the increase in fake typhus cases, the Nazis were convinced that there was a typhus epidemic, leading to the quarantining of thousands of “sick” Jews. Lazowski administered these injections to many other villages, preventing Jews from being sent to concentration camps.

Students in the Photography class will be giving presentations of their best photographs tonight.

The high school Photography class covers the basics of using a DSLR camera as well as the more complex aspects of photography. In tonight’s presentations, students will explain the intent and techniques used behind their photographs.

Before [Mr. Malinger’s] class I never thought of photography as telling a story but seeing it from that lens now has helped me to make better pictures and show the story of God through the awesome creation he has made for us humans to enjoy. For me, photography helps me to help others realize the beauty of the world.

I love that photography helps me see the world with a different perspective. The world is magnificent, and I can capture its beauty on a small scale with things like bugs to items on a larger scale like buildings or landscapes. Photography calms me, allows me to enjoy being present, and is my way of creatively expressing myself. Also, it lets me interact with others, as I get to meet new people in unfamiliar places or show others details in photos they haven’t seen or noticed before.

3D Photography

Get our your 3D red/cyan glasses and enjoy the 3D anaglyph photography created by students in Basic & Advanced Photography.

If you wonder how these pictures work, be sure to take look at the slideshow at the festival’s website—hbaaff.hba.net —that explains it.

I love photography because it makes you look at the world in a different way. It motivates you to go outside and take pictures.
