April Friges

Friges completed her MFA at the University of California, Irvine, California in 2010. In 2013 she moved to Pittsburgh to take a position as Assistant Professor of Photography at Point Park University, where she teaches analogue and digital media and supervises students' Senior Thesis work. Friges works with photography, but in unconventional ways: in her hands the flat planes bend and warp into three-dimensional sculptural volumes. Her most recent solo show was at the Pittsburgh Filmmakers Gallery in 2014.
