This piece “Some things haven’t changed” by Diane G. was chosen as the finalist for the Graphic Art age 16-18 category in the Documerica-inspired Document Your Environment Contest.

Judge Michael Philip Manheim, one of the original Documerica photographers, evaluated artwork in the Graphic Art category.

“For this entry I used the pictures that I took when making my video.The idea is the same in both; that it is important that some things in our environment be left alone so that they may influence future generations.”

Michael chose this entry because he “liked the concept of retaining what is important, emphasized by mirroring the original photograph.”  The original Documerica photo by Frank Aleksandrowicz is titled “Corn and Pumpkins on Farmland Near the Cuyahoga River…09/1975.”
