Student work on campus: Katie Stanton, Untitled

 

 Katie Stanton

Untitled

Ink on canvas, acrylic on wood

Student artwork is popping up in the Arbury lobby again, like the series of paintings by BFA candidate Katie Stanton. Each of twelve squares is filled with a texture made of dyed, torn canvas, featuring bright and saturated colors.  The wooden frames are painted as complimentary colors to the interiors, enhancing the colors chosen. The heavy texture of the pieces is an interesting focal point, contained and contrasted by the smooth wooden frames. Although the pieces are small, the repetition creates a larger composition spanning all twelve pieces.

To see this and other student work, stop in the Arbury Fine Arts building lobby, just outside of University Art Gallery.
