Life and Death: Art by Shonti Breisch January 17, 2013

Shonti Breisch was born and raised in Salt Lake City, Utah. She attended Westminster College and received a BFA in Photography with minors in Chemistry and Music in 2011. Shonti has enjoyed all types of mediums as well as other artistic expressions including music as a string bass player and modern dance. However, her primary art medium is photography. Photography has given her a way to share with others what she sees in the world. The small things that others tend to pass right by without giving them a second glance. Her viewfinder is aimed mostly at the macro world that surrounds us which ties in with her background in the sciences and research in biology. Shonti enjoys exploring how interconnected science and art are and how neither of them can exist without the other.
