The Natural World brings us closer to ourselves. This is the truth that Chanda Day has discovered in her life.
In noticing patterns and discovering continuity in detail, she creates new ways to understand Nature through her art.
Since childhood oceanside in Corpus Christi, Texas, there is a thread of curiosity and inherent talent. Whether as a photojournalist, Master Naturalist with a group of kids and cameras, or a Middle School Science Educator, Chanda finds it her purpose and gift to see beauty everywhere. This vision takes many forms. You can see the continuity at DAYPHOTO on IG, or in the archives of her community. She is a documentarian and fine artist.
Her FOTOSEPTIEMBRE 2025 solo exhibition, Imagining This, at the Blume Gallery, St. Mary’s University in San Antonio, Texas, displayed deep richness, creativity, and insight as she brings Nature a little closer to our hearts.
