Her current series, The Artist, is in response to the place she found herself in during the pandemic. Taking notice, via social media, of creative friends', peers and mentors' productive spaces, she began reaching out with the intent of connecting virtually for a photoshoot, regardless of how elaborate or makeshift each individual's spaces were. An intimacy is achieved in the images, as the viewer is allowed into these personal and private spaces during these strange times. Meghan has been teaching photography and beginner drawing at VISA since 2016. www.meghankrauss.com Meghan Krauss Photographer, Artist, Landscapes, Commercial, Art, Meghan, Krauss, Photography, Photo Education MFA University of Windsor BFA University of Saskatchewan Meghan Krauss Create your future COURSES & WORKSHOPS
