Lucy Boltz Final Project
Sorry I could not upload the stop-motion videos or the entire video...My final art project is about medical tools that do not function because of their materials, and how certain groups do not receive adequate healthcare.
A fake company, Medical Tools Remade Inc., designs health-care solutions for groups of people. They have designed a wooden stethescope for Illegal immigrants, since their studies show that 72% of illegal immigrants do not have a functional heart, only a cavity. Another innovation is the ceramic pill for non-english speakers since they can never seem to understand when and how many pills to take when they're told in English. Ceramic pills pass right through the body. So, you can reuse them and never over-dose! For the homeless this company has designed wire sutures. The wire sutures also double as self defense mechanisms.

Geoff Mino- Final Project
the flat cuts
the flat wraps
the flat stretches
the flat borders
the flat contains
the flat is transparent
the flat is always truth
the flat can be painted on
but only the flat can clean the flat
the flat can be layered upon
the flat
upon the flat
the flat is covered
in hundreds of oppressions, thousands of histories
of veil. the flat is the raped virginal pale
(eternal) out-of-time forever instant
return.
the flat offers to the human
but the flat is opposed to all that is human.
the flat beckons the spirit,
but the flat, being immobile, requires abandon.
the flat is not a glaze;
it is what remains when the glaze is washed away
the flat is not representational or abstract
the flat is that upon which representations and abstractions
are
foisted.
the flat is that with which the architecture of space is scaffolded.

Madeleine Filloux: Final Project
Here are some images of my final project. The last one is a photo of the whole ensemble and the rest are close-ups (sorry, the quality of the photos isn't great!).
In this project, I wanted to explore the discontinuity between self, self-perception, self-projection, and others' perception of that projection. Each square is a self-portrait drawn in pencil, some with added elements of stitching and/or cloth, and they are all tied together with thread.

Ethan Cecchetti: Final Project
This project doesn't really have a title, just a theme that things are not as they seem. It's intended to allow viewers to interpret it as they please. I didn't have a specific interpretation in mind while creating it.
