Item The Art of Industry(2023) Hampson, Emily; Martinsen, Chaz; Kormeluk, Natalia; Lard, James; Hood College Art and Archeology; Hood College Ceramic Arts"An industrialist is an artist" -John Cotton Dana Is this true? It seems that much of the population believes that it is not, and that art and industry are not only distinct categories but are at odds with each other. I believe that those holding this opinion do so largely based on a misunderstanding of the processes that go into manufacturing. There is a belief that, since the industrial revolution, people are no longer involved in manufacturing and that machines do everything. How can it be art if it was made by a machine? Another reason for the misconception is that, even when made aware of the human efforts that go into manufacturing processes, it is the “unskilled” labor of an assembly line that is seen. How can it be art if no one person is the “artist”? But, if you trace the steps backwards, you will realize the artist is the one who orchestrated all the moving parts: machines, people, molds, tools, materials, prototypes, and designs to all come together to make the process which creates the product. This is “the art of industry.”Item Ashley Minner: building meaningful connections with art(MOO, 2022-01-24) Jones, Ashley Minner; The MOO TeamItem Early Canvas(University Of Virginia, 2003-12-12) Pekarske, NicoleItem Feminist Art: Steps Towards an Egalitarian Society(2018) Krupinski, Elyse; ArtArt is a powerful form of media because of the way visual stimulus can create a visceral reaction. Art is used to inspire activism; protest art can be seen in multiple political and social movements. A movement in particular which showcases a great number of artists using visual media to promote social change and equality is the feminist movement of the 1970s. Feminist art from the 1970s is particularly notable and inspiring because the Women's Liberation Movement emerged during this time, which was the one of the first times in the Western world that enough women spoke out about equality for it to broach the male dominated sphere and the media; their concerns could no longer be dismissed outright. Artists such as Judy Chicago and Miriam Schapiro utilized a creative process to make pieces that commented on and invented conversation about social issues and change. Some artists became activists and advocates for greater representation of women. Women activists and feminist artists alike demanded that they too be represented in national museums as capable artists, and they created their own exhibition spaces and galleries to show the world their art was just as aesthetically pleasing and emotionally moving.Item Laridae, Volume 1, Fall 2019(Salisbury University, 2019) Reese, Melissa; Burns, Anna; Danis, Rayna; Ward, Tara; Kamara, N’tuma; Giggey, Maggie; Donley, Sarah; Passwaters-Stamper, Mariah; Hamilos, Julia; Tate-Moore, Aaron; Dabbs, Austin; Riggin, Roger; Tesoriero, ArielleLaridae features outstanding works from undergraduate students from across SU's programs and disciplines.Item Laridae, Volume 2, Fall 2020(Salisbury University, 2020) MultipleLaridae features outstanding works from undergraduate students from across SU's programs and disciplines.Item Laridae, Volume 3, Fall 2021(Salisbury University, 2021) MultipleLaridae features outstanding works from undergraduate students from across SU's programs and disciplines.Item Laridae, Volume 4, Fall 2022(Salisbury University, 2022) MultipleLaridae features outstanding works from undergraduate students from across SU's programs and disciplines.Item "Let My Mountains Be"(2010) Burrus, Angela; Love-Asante, Monifa A; English and Languages; Master of ArtsThis thesis presents two chapters of an original novel, "Let My Mountains Be." The novel tells the story of Ruby Jamison, a woman from a small, rural southern community who struggles to sustain true happiness and stability while struggling to reunite with her daughter. In introducing "Let My Mountains Be," the writer explores the journey to wholeness through a three-part process: acknowledgement, transformation, and redemption. Alice Walker's The Third Life of Grange Copeland is used as a model for the novel. Walker's aesthetic mission and the protagonist Grange Copeland's quest for self-discovery are assessed. This thesis demonstrates how both Ruby and Grange's pursuits of unfulfilled longing wound their loved ones and themselves before they realize the pathway to fulfillment begins with self-love.Item Post US(2022-01-01) Droneburg, Paul Adam; Bell, Kathryn; Visual Arts; Imaging and Digital ArtsAt the beginning of most post-apocalyptic movies, there is a prologue�a quick cut to a series of newscasters talking in dismayed voices describing the events that led to the tragedy, flashing images of war, climate change, protest, social collapse, etc. We are now living through that prologue.

By abstracting Caribbean seascapes, parts of the Flamboyán tree, chest scars left behind by gender-affirming surgery and coquí frogs through an array of mediums, the ecology of Puerto Rico and the Trans body overlap and create a multi-sensory place wherein visitors may witness the euphoria of Transgender Puerto Ricans.
