RBV Photo Students Recognized by Museum of Photographic Arts in Balboa Park

Kelly Clark, Photo Teacher at Rancho Buena Vista High School, announced that the following students were accepted into the very competitive juried student art show at the Museum of Photographic Arts in Balboa Park. “Usually we’re thrilled to get one kid in every other year, but this time we’ve recognized EIGHT students out of only 56 selected from all over San Diego and Tijuana! That is insane!”, Kelly said. The show will be up in the museum beginning May 22nd. Here is the website for the museum- https://mopa.org/. It will be showcasing this year and last year’s student show as the museum has been closed since last March and just reopening this week.

This year’s theme is ‘Space’ and here are the winning entries!

Shyla Buckhouse, 12th grade

Shyla Buckhouse. “Most of my personal time is spent in my room doing the things I love. This photo shows some things I like to do and how I like to decorate my personal space.”

Mercedes Hartdegen, 10th grade


Mercedes Hartdegen. “When giving theme space I think of outer space. I chose to show outer space making the viewer think that they’re looking through a telescope at the moon.”

Bella Lopez, 12th grade

Izabella Lopez. “The balloons are a representation of the things we surround ourselves with everyday. It piles up little by little, creating an ocean that can tell a lot about who we are as a person.”

Kira Neth Nanpei, 9th grade

Kira Neth Nanpei. “This piece of artwork fits under the theme of space, specifically outer space, because of the galactic theme. The subject has stars lighting up her face in the dark, which is painted a purple and blue starry sky.”

Kyle Ramirez, 9th grade

Geovany Rosales, 11th grade -SECOND TIME getting into the juried art show!

Geovany Rosales. “The word “SPACE” can be interpreted in many different ways depending on the person. As for me, I believe space is a place that every human being has. It is the place where memories lie and the characteristics that make up who you are as a person. From the past, to the present, the space you have constructed in this lifetime will ultimately end up representing the story of your life.”

Joe Schilling, 12th grade

Joseph Schilling. “This picture represents the space that separates us from others. There is a world around us, and people living a completely different life than we do.”

America Velasco, 11th grade

America Velasco. “When I think about space the first things I think about are peace, serenity, and beauty. For me music is all those things. Listening to music transports me to a different head space. It feels like I’m floating in darkness with nothing but the music surrounding me. All the worries and stress I have are thrown out the window, as I pay attention to only the melody and lyrics of the song.”

Kelly said, “I am so proud of how incredibly creative and resourceful our Longhorns have been working remotely!”
