Glendale Community College’s Noncredit ESL program attracts unique and talented individuals from Glendale, California, and its surrounding areas. In keeping with this month’s art theme, I have decided to feature a particularly artistic student who got her start at GCC in the Noncredit ESL program at Garfield Campus. Agata Gravante completed Noncredit levels one through five before continuing to credit classes in the Fall 2018 semester. Along the way, she has positively impacted every classroom with her sensitive, understanding, and caring attitude toward everyone around her. Agata’s goal is to study Art History and get her master’s degree.
Agata Gravante is an Italian photographer and creative director from Rome, Italy. She studied photography at the European Institute of Design and photojournalism in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Agata’s love of photography began as a child when her grandfather gave her an Agfamatic 50 camera. She was instantly hooked by the magic of the camera and the sense of adventure and connection to nature and people that it gave her. According to Agata, her work is driven by light. She explores themes of identity through portraits and landscapes to evoke a sense of mystery and beauty.
