Ephemeros is an exhibition organised by 13 photography students from MMU; Laura Mather, Charlotte Ainley, Amanda Salter, Hollie Myles, Martyn Green, Sophie Jane Stafford, Matthew Williams, Amy Clarkson, Laura Sparks, Charlotte Robson, Ste Dunn, Jo Hallatt and Alejandra Angel. Taking place at the venue; Kraak Gallery.
The show is a platform for upcoming artists to exhibit their views of the world; each one of them having a very personal approach.
The exhibition is a statement of the ever changing medium. Unlike painting or any other art, photography is evolving fast because of the new technologies hence it is sometimes taken for granted as an art form. This is an opportunity for the viewer to give another chance to photography, separated from its familiarity with publicity and any other commercial use.

“…It is a matter of surrounding with a frame a portion of one’s cone of vision, while standing in the right place at the right time. Like chess, or writing, it is a matter of choosing from among given possibilities, but in the case of photography the number of possibilities is not finite but infinite.” –John Swarkowski
