Frog Alley Community Garden is located in the historic neighborhood of Frog Alley in Delray Beach. The garden’s philosophy believes in “sowing community through organic practices”. They advocate the importance of sustainable life practice by providing the community an open space in which to cultivate and grow their own food.

Show moreFrog Alley Community Garden is located in the historic neighborhood of Frog Alley in Delray Beach. The garden’s philosophy believes in “sowing community through organic practices”. They advocate the importance of sustainable life practice by providing the community an open space in which to cultivate and grow their own food. Through documenting the ins and outs of the Frog Alley Community Garden, I wish to raise awareness on sustainable and practical life practice through Organic cultivation. This means documenting methods that require a relatively small amount of energy to yield a high amount of outcome. An example of this would be permaculture, agricultural design in alignment with the patterns of nature, plays a large role for many of these dedicated gardeners. With the intent of implementing gardening methods that seek to coexist with the natural ecosystem, the ability to grow and share food, as well as contributing little to no environmental impact, establishes Frog Alley as a sustainable garden. The diversity of gardeners at Frog Alley, a handful of who are new to gardening in general, are egger to learn and experiment with various methods of organic cultivation. The sharing of information from gardener to gardener pertaining to the growth of their plots, when to seed and harvest, the identification of native plants, and assorted solutions to pest problems is what makes Frog Alley a community garden. Candid shots focusing in on the gardeners, the conscious design of space, the plants, and the tremendous amount of work involved have been the highlights of this project. The significance of each composition is to mirror the earthy element, depicting a combination of labor and love. The choice of paper and size, such as a cold press natural matte 13 x 19, coincide with the natural aspect echoing throughout.

My documentary focuses on the aspects of therapeutic riding: which engages the rider both physically and mentally. Physically the rider is able to build core body strength and the movement of the horse mimics the human gate. Mentally the riders attention has to be engaged multi-dimensionally focusing both on the instructions they are given and on the connection with the horse. The shift in the riders’ personality is interesting to watch and in many cases they open up and enjoy the experience....

Mentally the riders attention has to be engaged multi-dimensionally focusing both on the instructions they are given and on the connection with the horse. The shift in the riders’ personality is interesting to watch and in many cases they open up and enjoy the experience. The therapies shifts the greater conversation away from disabilities and being unable to participate in activities to being an individual who has impairment who can still be an active participant. Those with a physical impairment experience independent movement, those who are non-verbal and autistic individuals tune their communication skills.

Although LBGTQ people currently experience unprecedented visibility in American media and popular culture, those representations depict flattened images that reduce complex individuals into simplified and limited categories of identity. I created this documentary to blur and shatter the boundaries currently restraining the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transsexual, and queer communities through the production of theoretically informed photographic images. These pictures form a response to pop...
Show moreAlthough LBGTQ people currently experience unprecedented visibility in American media and popular culture, those representations depict flattened images that reduce complex individuals into simplified and limited categories of identity. I created this documentary to blur and shatter the boundaries currently restraining the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transsexual, and queer communities through the production of theoretically informed photographic images. These pictures form a response to pop culture tropes and misinterpretations of the LGBTQ community. In totality, I intend to pluralize and complicate notions of identity and bodies.
