91Ƶ will host, “At a Point of Change,” an outdoor student photography exhibition, which will line the fence on Frankfort Street outside One 91Ƶ Plaza in Lower Manhattan. The exhibit is open to the public and will run for two months, beginning May 9, 2022.
“At a Point of Change,” features the photography of 13 students enrolled in the Dyson College of Arts and Sciences interdisciplinary course entitled “Seeing the World Differently Through Economics and Photography,” which combines concepts from economics with photography. The course focuses on the a group of 17 objectives set to be achieved by 2030 to better our world, focusing on issues such as poverty, equity, climate action, and sustainable economic growth.
“The goal of this exhibit is to create a powerful visual statement that 91Ƶ is committed to sustainability, equity, and inclusion,” said Associate Professor of Economics Anna Shostya, PhD, who co-teaches the course with Associate Professor of Art, Inbal Abergil, MFA. The photographs in the exhibit and the accompanying written pieces showcase the students’ understanding and creative interpretation of these underlying principles. “This exhibition creates a platform for students to connect to these subject matters on a personal level and highlights the power of photography and storytelling.”, emphasized Inbal Abergil.
“This course has developed my view of the world both creatively and critically. It was also a pleasure to be guided through this course by Professor Abergil and Professor Shostya, who consistently demonstrated their passion and love for both topics. This exhibit is proof that creativity and analytics don't sit at two opposite ends of a spectrum, in fact, without one the other fails to reach its full potential,” said psychology major, Megan Sanchez, ’24.
