Shir Ende, M.F.A.

Instructor of Fine Arts in Photography

Through drawing, print, performance, and video, Shir Ende uses a degree of speculative thinking to explore movement within modern space. Ende works to reduce the “bigness” of architecture, re-imagining built structures as intimately scaled forms generated by movement.
