Happy Mother's Day




Jake and his mom Rhea collaborated on The Gift, the last project of the Mixed Media class. 10 am on Sunday we were invited to show up wearing pajamas. First of all, no one has pajamas and I don't think that students can get up that early on a Sunday. We all came, some of us wearing pajamas and watched Jake's video and ate Ria's famous pancakes with berries, scrambled eggs with mushroom and cheese, bacon and drank Mimosa. Happy Mother's Day and it was a win win situation for everybody. Thanks Ria and Jake!!!

What happened to Lucas' Site Specific Project

Lucas created a beautiful space under the stone circle in the Arb and before he can document the project, the police cleaned it up and dumped it in the trash by the golf course. So the crew loaded up and went in search of Lucas' project and miraculously Lucas found it after digging around in the dumpster. As a bonus Sophie found a bag of dog droppings sitting on top of Lucas' mirror

Sophie is helping Lucas while Jake is videotaping

Lucas was elated to find his mirror

Sites and Locations

Here is an example of the Sites and Locations project from Bekah Blank. A great way to spend a beautiful afternoon walking through the woods to look at 3D images of Bekah's grandparents home in Pennsylvania
SamO and Stephanie looking at the work. By the way they will be in the Senior Studio Seminar next year so congrats
