Off Track
i.imagine at Roebling Books and Coffee
September 28, 2024–November 1, 2024
​
As the Kentucky Derby comes to a close each year, i.imagine photography students analyze and discuss race day photos, and each time the same conversation emerges: “I wonder what it’s like behind the scenes on a regular day in the life of a jockey, his horse, and the stable.” Brought together by i.imagine, a group of teen photography students, Triple Crown jockey Steve Cauthen, and acclaimed photojournalist Madeleine Hordinski embark on a journey of authentically immersing into environments that spark curiosity and inspire visual stories behind the scenes of Kentucky horse racing.
From welcoming new foals at Mr. Cauthen’s thoroughbred farm in Verona, Kentucky, to meeting horse caretakers and their families, i.imagine photographers have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to go “off track,” combining their passion for photography with fundamental concepts of visual storytelling. This collaborative project celebrates young aspiring photographers in the community who are finding their voice through the lens, while learning how their skills and talent can educate and impact others.
Artists: Ethan Beuvart, Kendra Blackburn, Riley Bonhaus, Victoria Casazza, Erin Collins, Owen Garner, Emily Gibbs, Zach Harper, Zach Hodorowski, Audrey Hoffman, Lydia Hudson, Keyri Juarez Diaz, Camille Kolar, Vivienne Kolar, Trip Lancaster, Elaina Trapane, Evie Tropiejko, Samantha Unterreiner, Parker Wyatt

Fusion
At the Purple People Bridge, Newport KY.
July 19 - August 14
Fusion is a collection of photographs created by i.imagine students that experiments technically, artistically, and socially with how two or more things can be brought together to make one beautiful photograph. "Creating photos for this exhibition enabled students to forget about Covid-19 for a little while, and instead, focus on things that are important in their lives,” says i.imagine Executive Director, Shannon Eggleston. "Like every i.imagine photo, 'Fusion' is a collection of images that takes you into the soul of each of our students. These photos are moments that matter, beautifully representing the fact that, even in the midst of an international pandemic, we can capture the joy that lives within each and every one of us.”
​
There are eighteen artists and photographs stretched across the Purple People Bridge for you to enjoy! Be sure to scan the QR code on each photograph for an up close and personal video visit with each of our amazing photographers!
