Sherry Insley presents an introduction to alt-processing methods in regards to photography and its various approaches. Club members will be sampling a variety of prints and pieces (such as lumen prints) after the event, and Sherry will answer any questions and guide your work if you're interested in pursuing photographic techniques outside the darkroom, "Lightroom," and even the camera!

Sherry Insley is a mixed media artist working primarily in photography, video, printmaking, and artist books. Her current work is a rumination on time and the impermanence of both the emotional and realized landscape of memory. She utilizes light sensitive materials in both historic and contemporary ways to document and preserve these investigations. Interested in the physicality of photography, her latest work "Temporality," explores how image making can manipulate and influence the experience of time. Sherry Insley is a 2023 MAEA Secondary Art Educator of the Year nominee,  a recipient of the 2023 Jurors Choice Award from the Maryland Federation of Art American Landscapes exhibit, a MSAC IAA winner, a SURDNA Foundation awardee, and a 2018 Artist in Residence through the Hive Maker Space. She has exhibited her work locally and nationally. She holds undergraduate and graduate degrees from UMBC and MICA. Currently, she is an instructor at Carver Center of the Arts, a nationally recognized audition based magnet fine arts program. She can be found in Baltimore City most of the time, and at the salt marsh the rest of the time.
