So here is the deal. I sucked at keeping up with my progression this summer. I have a ton of photos that I'm just gonna throw out there, so bear with me. I was lucky enough to be accepted into a summer program that allowed me to work with a grad student named Julia Feld. She is an amazing artist, as well as mentor, and I created a body of work that she advised me through building. The work I made was large- scale figurative sculptures. I used a white clay and stained them with red iron oxide and copper carbonate. The work was inspired by tribal dances and the idea that when we allow ourselves to emerge into a primal state of emotion, the physical expression is at its highest point of beauty and honesty. Hope you enjoy the mess of photos, and here is a link to Julia's website. You need to check her out.
