Day 3 by Kat Moore

On the third day with Dot, the curator of Allen's Lane Art Center came to look at possible works that will be shown at the gallery. The curator snapped photos of the pieces I helped on and talked on his excitement of the solo show. After the visit Dot and I took a trip to the Fabric Workshop and Museum. We had a small tour of the studio spaces in the museum and saw the artist Ursula Von Rydingsvard's solo show called The Contour of Feeling. I had to awesome opportunity to the hidden screen printing in museum and actually get a close look at how the screen printing ink was made and the workshops process of screen printing repeat patten. I took screen printing class at Uarts with a professor who is the head of the screen printing at the Fabric Workshop. When the person giving to tour explained the printing process it related to the experience of her teaching the class at Uarts.  I really enjoyed Ursula Von Rydingsvard's work because throughout looking at her pieces I could see her process of where she started to add texture to her wood sculptures and where she ended. Rydingsvard's work is very textured based and that's what I enjoy most out of her different pieces of wood sculptures.

I was able to learn more about strobes and working with big name clients. I even got a SLAM magazine t-shirt!

Week 3 Art Restoration with Kat and Megan

Week 3 The UArts alumnus I’m working for is Megan Becker, who pursued the same internship program I’m part of when she was an Illustration student at the university. She has been the one handing me an airbrush and letting me (tentatively) try my hand at stain remediation for water damaged pieces. Megan and I are a good alum-student match because of our shared interest in illustration, and quieter introverted nature. Although Megan’s and my art is very different, we share an understanding for visual meaning and narrative.  The weeks at ART are fairly reliable work-load wise, but on Wednesdays we get to do something a little different. Megan teaches art classes for young students directly after work on Wednesday, so she takes me with her to where her classes are. Of course, I can’t roam around aimlessly while she works, so I take her car to Dunkin Donuts and sit outside, sipping a black coffee and reading The Sandman, volume 5. I enjoy these little quiet moments where I final

Yo!!!!!! My name is Malik Murray, I am a rising junior photography major. I am more than excited to be working under Uarts Alumni Lou Caltabniano and John Pushnick. I started actually a little before the school year ended. So far it has been fun and a great learning experience.

Hope everyone has a great summer and enjoy their time gaining experience in a variety of art forms!!
