On the “City Lights” series “Speaking of Art,” local artists share insights into their influences, processes, and experiences in town. This edition features full-time photographer Britney Bongang.
“A lot of it [photography work] can be birds and different species of birds. A lot of it can be other nature elements, so different animals out in nature,” Bongang said.
“If I am doing some city shots, some city work, a lot of it is a wider scale, as opposed to kind of a macro, zoomed-in type of shot, I like the bigger picture.”
Bongang began her art journey working with her husband, who is a full-time muralist and graphic designer. As technology changed and social media platforms became more relevant, it created a need for behind-the-scenes content. So what started as filling the need for their business, Bongang Art, blossomed into a full-time professional venture.
Bongang never considered herself an artist, especially coming from a science and psychology background.
