Sam Stevens
Snow Canyon
“Pray for peace and live to love. As an artist, my dream is to share inspiration, peace and love. I specifically focus on creating spherical panoramic photography with the hope that my work will help re-inspire the viewer’s nostalgic memories and their ‘Dreams Lost in Time.’ My artwork is made to reflect both the dream world and different perspectives of reality. My mission as an artist and photographer is to preserve special places and moments in time.
My art recreates the most precious dreams and experiences of my life. It is my hope that it does the same for others. There were many mountains I risked my life climbing in order to create a new work of art. As I was captured while photographing some of the most breathtaking moments of my life, I became aware that I was often the only person present for many of these incredible moments in such incredible places. I now find it a great honor to recreate each of those beautiful moments to share with others who weren’t there to experience them.” Student Arts Program official selection 2019. Located on the third floor, near room 304.
