Andrea Clark sees photography as the art of paying attention through creativity and
connection. A lifelong learner, she enrolled in her first WCC photography class after
recovering from a traumatic health event. Viewing photography as her spiritual healing
practice, she loves to create in collaborative and meditative spaces. She has enjoyed opportunities to learn and grow through the WCC photography program,
including the In Transit Ann Arbor Art Center exhibition and volunteering with the
Life Images portrait project with the UM Cancer Center. Most recently, she has experimented
