Photo collage wins “Intra Mural” Art Competition

A collage of nature photos submitted for the "Intra Mural" Arts Competition

A collage created by Robin Brooks, UW Recreation marketing and communications manager, has won this summer’s “Intra Mural” Art Competition. The photos, which she took herself, were in response to the contest’s theme “What does recreation mean to you?”

She says of the piece, “I decided to use only nature shots, because when I think about what recreation means to me, it makes me think of all the incredible experiences I’ve had outside, and all the natural beauty I’ve had the honor of witnessing. These photos were taken while camping, hiking, kayaking, white water rafting, cruising, and even while working, believe it or not! They were taken in Washington, New York, Michigan, Idaho, Alaska, and British Columbia.”

Intramurals program manager and judge of the contest Sam Rodenberg writes, “I can’t believe [she’s] captured all of these shots. I think my favorite is the second row, third picture down. The sunlight is stunning.”

Congratulations, Robin!
