Constance’s work includes portraiture, editorial photography, photojournalism, fashion photography, fine art photography, and street photography. The vision of her work currently is the intersection of pain and hope and how diversity of humanity reconciles how to move forward in an unjust world.
Through film and digital photography, Iloh celebrates the power and potential of the still image. A persistent chronicler of themes of light, darkness, oppression, culture, style, faith, and humanity; Constance has been featured by Photo Vogue, the Los Angeles Center for Photography, the Tavis Smiley Show, and National Public Radio (NPR). Constance was an exhibiting artist in the 2023, “Our Truths, Be Told” art exhibition at Sovern sponsored by the Los Angeles Center for Photography. Constance’s photography from this exhibition was also featured in an NBC Los Angeles news segment.
Constance as an interdisciplinary artist draws on her myriad of expertise and passions for developing creative and innovative work. For example, she was invited to be a luminary for SAGE Methods, where she discussed how scholars can utilize photography in qualitative inquiry. She is also the author of works such as the seminal, “Do It for the Culture: The Case for Memes in Qualitative Research” in the International Journal of Qualitative Methods.
Perhaps what is most central to Constance Iloh Griffith’s ethos as an artist and anthropologist is the human as an instrument of creativity and insight.
