From 1999 to
2001 Alice has taught courses in basic darkroom techniques and
in "Exploring Your Inner Self Through Photography" at the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology Student Art Association.
In 2000, she was invited to participate as the outside guest
critique for final course review at the Rhode Island School of
Design. She also has tutored students in the darkroom at
Massachusetts Bay Community College.
Alice’s
photographs have won a number of awards: Her photographs have
received recognition in various competitions and from panels
administering photographic exhibitions. Among these she was a
finalist in the Photographer’s Forum of 1984 and the Swiss Grand
Prize Photo Competition in 1986. Her photographs won 1st and
3rd prize in the MIT Tech Talk Photo and Essay Contest in 1983.
She received an honorable mention in the Boston University
Bookstore Competition of 1984. In addition the Swiss Center
Foundation awarded a grant funding in support of her exhibition
at the Boston Public Library on "Bhutan: Secret Kingdom In The
Himalayas". For over a decade she has organized and curated the
annual art exhibition for the Swiss Society of Boston. She is
currently a U.S. permanent resident, which she was granted
through the "Alien of Extraordinary Ability in Photography"
immigration status.
Alice studied
and graduated from the Barbara Brennan School of Healing in
1999, and from the Society of Souls; a school devoted to
Integrated Kabbalistic Healing in 2003. Such a curriculum has
added a deeper dimension to an extensive spiritual background
which she already had. During the same year (in 2003), Alice
also received a Master Ed. in counseling psychology. This
background in spirituality and psychology has given her a
heightened sense of the essence at the center of all human
beings. Her photographs attempt to reveal this essence and
uncover the timeless depth which exists beneath the human
surface. |
