Spring Beginning Painting Project 1: Environment
No full textThis painting was digitized and uploaded to DLynx by the Visual Resources Center in Spring 2018.This is a painting created by Elizabeth Sommerkamp. It was submitted as part of the first project assigned to the Beginning Painting class of Spring 2018 taught by Carl Moore. This assignment, titled "Environment," required students to complete 20 paintings on a 9 x 12 inch cold press illustration board and two color charts. The "Environment" subject could reference objects from everyday life or a still life that was set up in the studio
Spring Beginning Painting Assignment 3: Statement
No full textThis painting was digitized and uploaded to DLynx by the Visual Resources Center in Spring 2018.This painting was created by Mary Phan. It was submitted as a part of the third project assigned to the Beginning Painting class of Spring 2018 taught by Carl Moore.For this project, the students had to create 1 Painting on a 20 x 20 Wood Panel with a focus statement. The painting had to express a feeling, emotion, idea or commentary about a specific topic or idea
Beginning Drawing Seven Value Movie-Still Assignment
No full textThis photograph was digitized and uploaded to DLynx by the Visual Resources Center in Fall 2018.This is an image of student art from the Seven Value Movie-Still Project in Beginning Drawing class in Fall semester 2018. Students were instructed to bring at least three 8.5 x 11” full sized, black and white movie stills. This assignment was designed to develop creative capacities by introducing to the seven-value scale as a tool for introducing a full range of value into a toned- ground drawing. Students could use Charcoal, a Straight edge, Vine Charcoal, Chamois, a Kneaded eraser, Scissors, a Drawing board, and Stumps as materials
UH Panda Dedicated to Betor
No full textThis digital image was taken by a member of the Memphis Art Project team. It was uploaded to DLynx during summer 2019.Memphis based artist Ronnie Bobal, otherwise known by his graffiti tag as Betor, was tragically lost to a drug overdose on Christmas Day, 2016. This mural, as part of Paint Memphis 2018, was dedicated to him. It features a panda bear framed in a pink and purple design. The letters U H can be seen on either side as wells as the numbers 1 8. Betor's name is underneath the panda bear
Characterization of weight matrices that induce torus actions of different properties
No full textPresentation by Yi Song ('18) delivered at the Rhodes College Undergraduate Research and Creative Activity Symposium (URCAS).Symplectic manifolds arise as geometrical representations of classical mechanical systems. We focus on the study of symplectic quotients, which are quotients of symplectic manifolds by symmetries of the system. The simplest quotients are by finite groups of symmetries and are known as orbifolds. However, it has been observed that more complicated symplectic quotients can sometimes but not always be identified with orbifolds. In fact, previous work by HerbigSchwarz-Seaton has shown that if the group action of a torus on a complex space has certain properties, called 2-principal and stable, then there does not exist a symplectomorphism between the symplectic quotient and a linear symplectic orbifold. In another word, properties of the torus actions have implications on the connection between the symplectic quotients and orbifolds. My research focuses on characterizing the weight matrices that induce k-principal and stable torus actions. I will present progress towards determining such a characterization of the weight matrix

"Liberation" Closing Reception Image
No full textThis digital image was photographed by VRC student workers and uploaded to DLynx by the Visual Resources Center in April, 2018.This is an image from the "Liberation" closing event, presented by The Collective. The Collective is a Memphis- based nonprofit organization that was launched in 2015. Their mission is to inspire and cultivate creativity within their community, to provide a platform for African American artists in Memphis to display their talents, and use that creative expression as a vehicle to uplift their community. The 'Liberation" exhibition was held from February 23- March 24. A panel discussion with the artists took place on March 13 , and a closing reception and performance took place in the gallery on March 23
"Body-ody-oddy" Opening Reception Image
No full textThis digital image was photographed by Helen Files and uploaded to DLynx by the Visual Resources Center in December, 2018.This is an image of the opening reception for the Body-ody-oddy exhibition held in the Clough Hanson Gallery on October 26, 2018. The exhibition consisted of artists exploring the body at, against, and beyond its boundaries, creating hybrids, amalgams, and excesses that illuminate the ways that politics and pleasures are made flesh. It featured work by Katie Torn, Alex Paulus, Melissa Wilkinson, and Moth Moth Moth and the Haus of Phantosea.
Alex Paulus commented on his work, stating "My paintings are a representation of how ridiculous I think life can be...I also like to include humor in the work. If my art can make people laugh and feel good, I’ve succeeded. The paintings are usually very bright and bold in color, and the subject matter can be a little bizarre. The use of brightly colored paint seems to curb some the strange imagery and make it more palatable to the viewer."
Melissa Wilkinson commented as well, saying "These series of paintings focus on my interest in dichotomies: obscuring and revealing, attraction and repulsion, good and evil, the past and the present. I appropriate imagery from a variety of sources in order to develop a pastiche that fractures the conventional male gaze and positions art historical models as both subject and spectacle. I choose to dismantle epic narratives from the past to create a schizophrenic perspective. The images break from their original sources into fragments, creating a complex visual experience that both irritates and seduces. It is through this body of work that I seek to challenge the hetero-normative male gaze and reinvent a fluid view that fluctuates between unconventional representations of the erotic body.
