Throughout the semester, Clarissa seems to stay interested in environmental content within her work and has specifically been dealing with the issue of water. During the first critique, she was using objects found on the beach to create her small sculptures and prints. She was using some maps in her small works, but now she has begun to use larger maps. She uses a much larger scale and is using map imagery more than what she was doing before. For instance, she has overlays large maps on top of each other, but some are flipped and moved around. She wants us to realize we are sharing this space, even if we are not even in the same place. She hopes to continue working with environmental issues in her artwork.
Another art event I went to this semester was the My Medium show that was put on by the Student Art Association. The pictures above are of me with the three pieces I entered in the show. The event was on April 27th, 2018 at the Islander Art Gallery. There were a lot of people there because the show consisted of work made by students at TAMU-CC. A lot of people I talk to in class had pieces in the show as well, I think it was a really cool opportunity to be able to show off the work we have done recently. There were prizes for the juror's favourite pieces along with some honourable mentions. The artwork there was very diverse because there wasn't a theme and the piece were done by so many different artists.
