Brian Moss is an artist, educator and documentary photographer. For five years he has worked with cancer patients and survivors from The Wellness Community as an Artist-In-Residence in Los Angeles and in Wilmington, Delaware. He began the project 'Lucid' in 2001, at the Delaware Center for Contemporary Art. The goals of the project were to teach the participants to make photographic self-portraits for creative purposes and as an aid in coping with the actual and psychological changes in self-image that accompany cancer treatment. Moss has been teaching photography, digital imaging and art history in the Los Angeles area since 1997, and online since 2005. Moss' work has been widely exhibited in the United States, including the California Museum of Photography in Riverside, Cue Art Foundation in New York, and the Center for Documentary Studies, in Durham, NC. He has received grants from the National Endowment for the Arts, the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs, the Durfee Foundation, Los Angeles Center for Photographic Studies, and Kodak.
