Every spring, Sheridan College celebrates the graduating students of its Honours Bachelor of Photography Program with a GRADWORK showcase. The annual event recognizes outstanding achievements throughout the academic year and launches the students into the professional world. The evening allows the students to network with industry professionals, including photo editors, art directors and fellow photographers. For the third year in a row, the event was virtual.
The GRADWORK website – www.sheridanphotography.ca – features images by each of the 45 graduating students, along with a statement about their work. An outdoor exhibit displayed the students’ work on nine street-level billboards in the west end of Toronto for two weeks.
“I am incredibly proud to be sharing the class of 2022's creativity and talent during GRADWORK,” says Donna Braggins, Dean, Faculty of Animation, Arts and Design. “This group of students has persevered throughout the pandemic to continue their studies and create incredible art. Their work is a true testament to the power of photography to convey rich, diverse stories.”
Judges presented 10 awards during the event. Members of the Canon Canada team attended to give the Canon Awards to two deserving graduates.
