The Good Knight, Elektra Koozer

University Honors Theses

Fictional Truths, Saachi Mehta

Masters Theses

Fictional Truths starts with a question: What if storytelling wasn’t just content, or a way to pitch to a client, but instead became a way of approaching design? What if we could borrow from how narratives are built to reimagine how we design?

Instead, Fictional Truths embraces …

Parallel Worlds, Mary J. Connell

Masters Theses

When I start a painting, I’m never sure how the painting process is going to go or how the painting will be resolved. I don’t plan things out or make sketches in preparation for the paintings.
