These artists embrace conceptual and process-oriented artwork, redefining photographic media through unique techniques, mixed media, and direct touch. In an environment dominated by new technologies, their work takes risks, embraces flaws, and invites viewer engagement while employing new approaches to express their ideas. Artists included are Mark Armbruster, Susan Calza, Michael Mapes, Holly Roberts, Constance Edwards Scopelitis, and Helen Sear.
