Beatrix Potter's Mice, Mary Chirichella
Theses, Dissertations and Culminating Projects
This paper explores the visual imagery in the mice illustrations of Beatrix Potter (British, 1866-1943), author and illustrator of children’s books. The research focuses primarily on the mouse tales Potter created in the early part of the twentieth century. It takes into account her personal life - including her artistic background, youthful training, and naturalist studies which informs her art. Revelatory evidence sheds light on historical background information and the significant sources that inspired and influenced her work.
Several analytical techniques are utilized -including biographical, formal/stylistic, iconographical, cultural and social history - to explore and find meaning in Potter’s mice …

Darken the Beauty Spots uses images gathered from sources such as Vogue, Good Housekeeping, and action movies to discuss whether images of truly empowered women exist in the media. The project examines six different and specific patterns of imagery found in the media that could potentially be seen as either empowering or repressive. Each pattern occupies its own 35” x 40” canvas that contains between four and eight found images taken out of their original contexts, cropped into fragments, and strategically placed on the canvas in order to create relationships between the images. The work is meant to remain …

What The Health Magazine Redesign, Sarah Glaser

I was art director for the Fall 2009 and Spring 2010 issues of What the Health magazine, a student-run publication on campus at Syracuse University. To put together the issues I oversaw an entire design department consisting of photographers and graphic artists. Photography assignments often came in late leaving little time for design work, and I did not feel satisfied with the ultimate layout design of the magazine. For my capstone project I took on the challenge creating a final book combining the strongest pieces from both original issues in a redesigned layout. I wanted to overcome the inconsistency that …

“Fox Fire” is an independent animated short. Its plot is centered on a young boy, a mysterious girl, and their adventures at a Japanese summer festival. The purpose of this project was to create a short and fun animation to stir the imagination of its viewers while incorporating elements of Japanese culture and experimenting with unique aesthetic choices.
During the initial brainstorming stages of this capstone, I decided that I wanted to somehow incorporate pieces of Japanese culture and mythology into the project. Not only is the folklore fascinating, I often enjoy expressing my Japanese heritage through artwork. The choice …

Exhibition of Recent Stone and Wood Sculptures by Elkana O. Ong'esa
The Fourth Dimension, a concept that I have been working on for many years with the objective of assisting people with visual disabilities to appreciate sculpture more. The use of stone, wood and metal allows me to create forms and surface finishes that address the issue of tactile vision or perception that I try to apply in achieving communication in the fourth dimension.
