Artist Statement:
My name is Laura Imhoff and I am the owner and photographer of Perception Studio. I graduated magna cum laude from the Myers School of Art, University of Akron in 2006 with a BFA in photography, and minors in painting, art history, and professional photography. While in school, my goal was to practice as many disciplines and approaches to art as possible so that I could gain a true understanding of what it meant to be an artist. But what did that require? It meant, “eat, breathe, and sleep” art. So, that is exactly what I did. While my classes offered technical advice for each discipline I tried, I learned the most from the artists of past decades and my colleagues. Sharing my life and art with them, and vice versa, showed me a world of possibilities and gave me a real appreciation for art in all its forms (and people, too). I decided that art school really wasn’t about learning how to BE an artist, but instead about how to defend why YOU are an artist. Being an artist isn’t about being techinically the best, which is what I had always strived for...its about the ideas ...

| Why Did You Become An Artist |
After attempting to follow a "normal" career path as my mother would say, I knew I wouldn't be happy in anything but a creative field. I loved fashion, I loved psychology...I considered fashion designing and art therapy, but turned to the fine arts instead. |
