We recently produced Direct to Media UV Printing prints on Dibond for Fran Monks, whose special photographic exhibition ‘Portraits of Keble II’ celebrates the rich diversity of the Oxford College community. This is the second exhibition of its type, and it will remain in Hall until 2024.
The portrait subjects represent different genders, ethnicities, disabilities, socio-economic backgrounds and LGBTQ+ communities. They were nominated by their peers because they have made – or are making – a significant, positive difference to Keble, Oxford and the world.
The 28 individuals include alumni, undergraduate and graduate students, current staff and Fellows. All the images were made by portrait photographer Fran Monks. On creating this second exhibition, Fran comments:
“It has been a privilege to meet and make portraits of the second set of 28 remarkable individuals from the Keble community. The resulting pictures invite you to look up and be curious about why each person was selected. As I made photographs, I heard tales of resilience and tenacity. I hope these new faces and stories will inspire a further generation of Keble change makers.”
Fran is a British portrait photographer who directs her work to focus on celebrating the under-celebrated through her painterly portraits of individuals shaping our world.
