Erica Duffy-Voss


A must see show that came to Georgetown
you can see more of Erica Duffy-Voss on her website, click HERE

From the other side of the world


Some Georgetown art students just got back from spending 2 weeks in japan taking part in the international Karakuri Workshop. A workshop designed to teach the history and basic methods of karakuri making. Karakuri are handmade performative dolls, ranging from basic puppets to the beginnings of autonomous robotics. So if you happen to run into Liz, Allen, Megan Sauter (pictured above), Joel Darland, or Stephanie Martin, go ahead and ask them what they did this summer.

New Artist to see



Ben Strawn works using acrylic on plexiglass because it scratches off so easily. He likes encaustic but really wants more clarity, plexi is great because he can sand it and really get that milky blur but still keep areas he wants clear. It's smooth so he can scrape stuff off with steelwool and then paint back into that smooth surface again. He hates canvas- he always works small so that texture really shows up.

Check out his full bodies of work HERE

Mordançage—the stymied and the sublime

The mordançage process is a unique photographic technique that allows the darkest parts of a silver print to blister and release from the paper base. Sometimes that emulsion can be used to create "veils" and other times it can be removed from the print completely. Either way, the resulting images are often unpredictable transformations of the original photographs.

3D Extensions



Admittedly this is my favorite project of the 3D Design and Ceramics Class. Students are challenged to create extensions for a part of the body, some did physical attributes and some did emotional extensions, but all turned out great.
