Students learned about the Japanese aesthetic called "Wabi Sabi". Wabi Sabi is all about the impermanence of life and nature, everything is impermanent, imperfect and incomplete. Students were challenged to find typically ugly things outside in nature and zoom in to try to capture texture and unity to make them seem "beautiful" or at least more interesting to look at. Students could not photograph anything that was further than an arms length away from their cameras, they were challenged to get close, to look at things typically overlooked.
