This piece is my small interpretation of New Delhi. I want to overwhelm the viewer and have them experience the sights and smells I came across while abroad by paying attention to small detail and excess within the space. This piece pays homage to the chaos and excitement of India that was so contrasting to my everyday life here in the states.

UW VISUAL ARTS BUILDING MAIN GALLERY

45 ARTISTS

Jennifer Odem-Sculpture I- look at her textures and color choices.....

Folkert De Jong

made from construction foam

For my 3d class.......

Florentijn Hofman

David Miguel Oliveira

All of these pieces required a good amount of patience and perseverance in the making.  I feel at times I cannot teach this but have to have faith the student will find their way to it.  I still find myself a student when I see works like :

Cal Lane

Tim Hawkinson..love love love this piece.

Wim Delvoye

This reminds me of a student named Jasmine who was obsessed with ears.

Sarah Raulerson-love her!  Makes art making look natural.

 Terry Allen

 Daniel Agdag-cardboard!!!

 Kim Sun Hyuk

 Katarina Fritsch

Wednesday brought me and my friend John on a 12 hr round trip to Provo to go see our friends at Pacific States for coke for UW.
The drive was beautiful yet smoking from the fires out here.
Once in Utah, however, fall was screaming all over the hills with the changing of the leaves on the maple and aspen trees.

Pacific States makes me proud to be an American.
They are producing over 300,000 tons of metal a week and they take such pride in everything they make.
Its inspiring and always a joy to visit them.

This is one of their ladles. Not sure we will ever get to this scale but its impressive!
Thank you Pacific States!!
Your support means a lot to the students and to myself!
Couldn't do it without you!

Mark Quinn- cast blood

  DO HO SUH- amazingly sewn pieces

 Thomas Doyle- love his scale, his vision, his craft!

Found this picture today and thought it was so thoughtful.  tranquil and meditative.
This is a good thing as equipment and materials continue to shift and change within our UW studios.
