2018 Berkeley Lab Physics Photowalk
Artist statement
“The judges' third place choice, entered by Stanislava Georgieva, was also taken at the ALS and shows George Meigs, a UC San Francisco beamline engineer working at Beamline 8.2.1. This beamline specializes in crystallography experiments that explore the structure of proteins. ‘Having the opportunity to capture this as a documentary photographer was more than awesome,’ Georgieva said. Her work has been shown at exhibitions in the U.S. and in Bulgaria. She has worked on behind-the-scenes photo shoots for films, and her personal work focuses on fine art documentaries. Judges also selected another entry by Georgieva among the top 10 winners.”
