For my capstone project, I’ve been working with the Center on Contemporary Art, or CoCA, a nonprofit contemporary art gallery in the heart of Seattle. Over the spring quarter, I’ve digitalized, scanned, catalogued, provided metadata and researched biographical and exhibition material from the Seattle Times, the PI and the Stranger, to provide context for over 150 archival slides allowing CoCA management, art historians, and art enthusiasts a deeper understanding and visual context of the history of contemporary art in the Seattle area.
