6 months ago

In this episode of PhotoWork, host Sasha Wolf talks with the three recipients of the Foundation's inaugural Fellowship: Molly D'Arcy, Brandon Holland, and Will Suiter. They each share how the six-month mentorship impacted their artistic practice and what the experience meant to them personally. It's an honest and transparent peek into the evolving practices and processes of these three young artists.

Molly D’Arcy is an American artist (b.1997) living and working in New England. She began making short films as a child, an interest which blossomed into a passion for darkroom photography. Her work centers around themes of journeying and destination. Spirituality has been part of her life since childhood and continues to play a central role in her photographic practice today.

He uses photography as a means of preservation and connecting with the world around him. He splits time working and living in Baltimore and New Orleans.

Will Suiter is an artist working in photography, based in Humboldt County, California. He was born 1999 in the San Francisco Bay Area suburbs, and grew up sharing time between the urban SF Bay Area and rural Ozark Mountains in Arkansas. He moved to rural Humboldt County in 2017 to study forestry at Humboldt State University, and the isolated, remote geography and rural culture of the region has informed much of his work since.
