A Lens Into The Personal...As SCAD prepares for deFINE ART, three days of celebrating the modern masters of visual art, we catch up with a previous deFINE ART guest: celebrated photographer and SCAD alumna, Melissa Spitz. Spitz hit the national stage with her eye opening photography series, "You Have Nothing to Worry About." The photo-scape tells the story of Spitz's mother as she navigates mental illness. Through her exhibitions and Instagram, Spitz touches thousands with similar life circumstances and develops the grounds for honest conversations. TIME Magazine honored Spitz as their 2017 Instagram Photographer of the Year in recognition of her brave artistic expression. In this episode, Paula Wallace celebrates Spitz's successes, delves into the vulnerable nature of her work, and reminds all SCAD alumni that they're never far from the hive.
