Standard Size challenges the commercial distribution of photography through minimal, material-based methods. Employing industrial grade materials, standard ratio sizes, and utilitarian objects, artists Molly M. Brandt (BFA 2014) and Jory Drew (BFA 2014) intersect through opposing additive and reductive processes. Snapshots and plastic assemblages by Drew link the deterioration of media with personal transformation. In sculptures and photograms from handmade rubbings, Brandt examines photographic structures through intimate gestures and architectural references. Activated by natural light, works interrogate the visibility of the individual within a culture of standardization.
