Trecien Schultz- Bachelor of Fine Arts


           
Trecien Schultz is a graduating BFA major with a focus in graphic design. Schultz’s work is very clean, with almost a playful and organic feel. Her work for the BFA show revolves around a series of designs for an aquarium, as well as two other businesses. Not only does she included posters, brochures and other paper products but also banners, t-shirts and even stickers, displaying a full range of products and limitless possibilities for her designs. In addition to logo/identity, Schultz is also interested in publication and web design, among other graphic design areas.           
         Schultz describes her designs as analytical and detail orientated, influenced by the movements of Bauhaus, and De stjil. As well as by the work of Piet Mondrian, and Alexander Rodchenko just to name a few. Her work is mainly characterized by the use geometric shapes, bold colors and basic typography.


Schultz says her interest in graphic design began in part due to her interest in the influence advertisers and the media have on consumer behavior. She adds, “we live in a commercial world and participating in the design process will allow me to put my own individual spin on some of it, even if it occurs behind the scenes.” Schultz plans to begin her job search soon for a graphic design position and has not ruled out any possibilities as to which direction her graphic design career may take her.  To see work by Schultz and other graduating BFA majors stop in and see the exhibit until Saturday, May 10th.
