Skilled at making invisible the visible, Friedman, sensitively documents the irony and ambivalence found in the parallel experience of exile. The protagonists live in a precarious environment for same sex couples, while their work supports a creative troop who are not allowed to officially perform in their homeland.

The challenging puzzle of conceptual projects

Know the question your images are seeking to answer

Images as adjectives

The importance of pre-thinking (envisioning) pre-project

Making creative choices based on underscoring the concept

Focusing on one emotion

The responsibility of composition

Matching your personality to the jobs you seek
