Juror

Our juror for the ‘25-26 Members Show is Christopher Dant. Chris Dant is an artist and educator based in Georgia, where he currently serves as Associate Professor of Photography in the Department of Visual Arts at the University of North Georgia. Chris’s vocation as an educator, mentoring the next generation of artists, motivates his own creative practice.

As an image maker, he uses the camera not only as a documentary tool, but as a means of affirming value—exploring the ways a photograph can build bridges, mend wounds, and find common ground. 

The notions present in his studio practice carry through to his community-centered work, where he collaborates with non-profit organizations and students of all ages to create images and build projects that foster connection.

His work has been shown regionally, nationally, and internationally—most recently at Sojourn Arts in Louisville, Kentucky and COPA Gallery in Bangkok, Thailand.

Chris lives in Gainesville, GA with his wife, Katherine Ann, their son, Josiah, and pup, Kona.
