Day Folder,

Virginia Commonwealth University
Day Folder, Raewyn Martyn
Theses and Dissertations
Provisional or unfinished images, forms and actions can sustain their status by continuing to change. This can resist programmed experience of their state, and shift their relationship as images within time. The sub-aesthetics of the unfinished and entropic can alter our understanding of where and how images are formed and located within time. My paintings each exist within their own emergent systems of time, structure and productive disorder. This thesis discusses these ideas in relation to DAY FOLDER and other work made during my MFA studies.

Query: How Does The Never To Be Differ From What Never Was?, Robert Scott Whipkey
Theses and Dissertations
The feeling of a narcotic cannot be put to words, just as the sensation one receives from her or his favorite artwork is impossible to record. Equally, both these delicacies of modern existence must be sought out. The user/viewer only gets a tiny taste and must therefore keep coming back for more. Utopia may be an unrealistic construction of culture, but I would posit the idea the both narcotics and art strive to give us just that – however tiny a taste. This paper addresses the intersections of visual art, drugs, anti-hero worship and contemporary representations of Romanticism throughout the …

Virginia Commonwealth University
Constant Motion, Daniel Rowe
Theses and Dissertations
This thesis contains my writings and concept development, as it relates to personal history, time and animated art. This is explored through various methodologies, including short story and Zen meditative writing. As a companion to my recent thesis exhibition, this paper looks to make logical, emotional and spiritual connections between my art practice, ritualized cultural tropes and contemporary views of mortality.
My Mechanics Of Justification,
2013
Virginia Commonwealth University
My Mechanics Of Justification, Veronika Pausova
Theses and Dissertations
This document examines the theory behind the process leading to my paintings, as well as the content of the images I use. The former will invoke romanticism, infinite possibilities, and the need for having certain parameters and flexible rules. The latter will talk about sentimentality and contemporary culture. I will explain the mechanics of justifying the choice of a particular way of painting: the push and pull between the loaded content of an image versus the language of painting itself.
Some Account Of The Art Of Photogenic Drawing,
2013
Virginia Commonwealth University
Some Account Of The Art Of Photogenic Drawing, Joseph Minek
Theses and Dissertations
This thesis is an overview of the processes and procedures used in the production of my artistic practice. In my work, I explore notions such as the ambiguity of the photographic image, what constitutes an image or object as photographic, and the unexplored possibilities of the medium through surface and mark making. In addition, I draw inspiration from artists Wolfgang Tillmans, William Henry Fox Talbot, and Marco Breuer as entrance points to my conceptual interests. For viewers, my work generates an internal dialogue about the limits of the photographic medium.

La Photographie De Rue: The Changed Face Of Doisneau’S Paris,

Brigham Young University
La Photographie De Rue: The Changed Face Of Doisneau’S Paris, Sarah Carrigan, Dr. James Swensen
Journal of Undergraduate Research
I suppose it all started in a textbook. Perhaps this shouldn’t be surprising, but as one who generally avoids superfluous bouts of academic reading, I’m still in a fair amount of awe that this project ever got dreamt up in the first place. Yet how could I resist the delightfully amiable photograph of an old man whose eyes were filled with light and mischief flirting with me from the introduction of my Art History 379 book? A man whom the author took so much care to mention with a tone of distinct fondness despite the fact that there was no …

The Childrens’ Literacy Project: “Restoring The Love Of Reading”, Melissa Manwill, Robert Barrett
Journal of Undergraduate Research
This project began as a desire to try my hand at making a graphic novel. I’d never done it before. Neither had my classmates. We had also never made a collaborative art project in the way that the animation program makes a film each year. Those two desires culminated in a 12-person team compiling an anthology of graphic novels to address illiteracy by helping students ages 9-14 get excited and stay excited about reading. The concept is like the children’s TV show Wishbone. You target the reluctant readers who are 9-14 years old, and you give them a teaser of …

Bridging The Classical Literature And Youth, Soljee Lee, Robert Barrett
Journal of Undergraduate Research
The purpose of this project was to create a medium that will bridge between the youth and the classical literature in order to address increasing epidemic of child illiteracy in this visual dominant world. The proposed solution was to introduce the classics to youth in the form of graphic novels; therefore, the goal of this project was the execution of the hypothesis and the examination of the result through audience response. It was also intended to serve as a tool to emulate the professional publishing market so that a student illustrator may become familiar with the function/characteristics of the market, …

Curriculum Adaption Highlighting Strengths Of Students With Adhd, Katie Dooley, Daniel Barney
Journal of Undergraduate Research
In accepting this research grant my objective was to better understand the characteristics of ADHD and to regard these characteristics as strengths that could be seen as assets in a classroom. When I began this research I was hopeful that I would find many articles discussing the positive traits of students with ADHD; however, disappointingly, I read far more articles explaining how to control or manage the students so that they would better fit into our ideal traditional classroom. For example, in “Treatment of ADHD in School Settings” the authors state, “The goal of school intervention is to contain and …

Restoring The Love Of Reading, Renee Bates, Robert Barrett
Journal of Undergraduate Research
Over the course of the past 15 months I have begun a project which I’m excited to say has helped me discover a new part of my family history as well as create a piece of art which I hope to share in the homes of many families. As a part of the ORCA, I proposed to write and illustrate a piece of literature based on the folklore tale The Changeling. By creating a tangible book to be held by children and parents together, my ultimate goal was to stray from the overwhelming surge in digital media and to restore …

Recognizing Faces: Women’S Portraits On The Salt Lake City And County Building, Diana Lauritzen, Dr. James Swensen
Journal of Undergraduate Research
Sixteen women’s portraits grace the capitals of four piers at the two main entrances to the Salt Lake City and County Building, a building which though controversial at the time, serves today as the icon of the city’s logo. Much like the details on the sandstone from which they were carved, their names have disappeared with time and only so much can be restored. My paper, which I presented as my senior thesis on April 6, 2012 at the BYU Museum of Art, explored who these women were, why they merited a prominent position on the building, and what their …
