Ashley Feagin

Associate Professor and Department Chair

Ashley Feagin explores stories through photographs, installations, performances, and
collaborations. Feagin’s work stems from an endless stream of internal questions. Feagin’s
curiosities are filtered through her queer identity and Southern upbringing; she reimagines
failure and questions all possibilities by embracing any medium that makes the most sense.
Feagin’s work is featured in several books published by Vermont Photography Workplace:
“Poetic Objects: Still Life As Subject,”” Home… is Where the Camera Is”, and “Redefining the
Self Portrait.” Her work was featured in the traveling group exhibition; “Spinning Yarns:
Photographic Storytellers.” She has presented lectures for the Society for Photographic
Education and the Mid-American College Art Association at regional and national conferences.
Feagin received her BA in Photography from McNeese State University in Lake Charles,
Louisiana, in 2009 and her MFA from Louisiana Tech University in Ruston, Louisiana, in the
spring of 2012. She is an active member of the Society for Photographic Education, the Texas
Photographic Society, and the Houston Center of Photography. She is an Associate Professor of
Art and Chair of the Art and Art History Department at Albion College in Albion, Michigan.
