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 Vishwesh Ravva. 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

"What's Gone With Boy I Wonder" Installation Image
No full textThis digital image was photographed by Chip Pankey and uploaded to DLynx by the Visual Resources Center in September, 2018.This is an installation image for Jared Buckheister's exhibition "What’s Gone With That Boy I Wonder".Spanning the last decade, What’s Gone With That Boy I Wonder surveys Jared Buckhiester’s exploration of conflicted desires and the American archetypes that anchor them. This exhibition presents a selection of works inclusive of the artist’s varied and emotionally-invested approach to the medium drawing. Initially an exhibition titled Love Me Tender curated by David Getsy and presented at The Bureau Of General Services Queer Division in the fall of 2017, What’s Gone With That Boy I Wonder expands on its previous incarnation. In the current iteration of this exhibition, photography and sculpture are included alongside drawings, giving a fuller impression of Buckhiester’s working process, while broadening its narrative and conceptual possibilities. There was a lecture for the exhibition on August 30, and the exhibition was held from September 1st to October 7th

"Body-ody-oddy" Exhibtion Image
No full textThis digital image was photographed by Chip Pankey and uploaded to DLynx by the Visual Resources Center in December, 2018.This is an image of the Body-ody-oddy exhibition held in the Clough Hanson Gallery. 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.

Vasopressin receptor expression in Anolis carolinesis relative to season (breeding vs. nonbreeding) and sex (male vs. female)
No full textPresentation by Laura Cardona ('18), Pooja Dave ('19), and Teia Popescu ('20) delivered at the Rhodes College Undergraduate Research and Creative Activity Symposium (URCAS).The social behavior neural network contains a variety of signaling neuropeptides, such as
vasopressin (VP), and their receptors. Previous studies in rodents and songbirds have
demonstrated that there are differences in neural vasopressin receptor (VPR) expression based on
sex (male vs. female) and season (breeding vs. non-breeding). VPRs are G protein-coupled
receptors consisting of several subtypes. The V1aR and V1bR subtypes are the most well-known
mediators of the effects of VP on social behavior. Understanding differences in receptor
expression can help us understand behavioral differences across sexes and seasons. Using green
anoles (Anolis carolinesis), 10 breeding season animals (6 males and 4 females) and 12 nonbreeding
season animals (6 males and 6 females) were compared for amount of V1aR expression
across pertinent brain regions. Using autoradiography, we analyzed the amount of V1aR by
overlaying photomicrographs of Nissl-stained brain sections over the autoradiography slides in
Photoshop, and then outlined target brain regions. Average pixel brightness was determined as a measure of V1aR expression for each area. Based on previous research, we predict that breeding
males will have generally higher V1aR expression than females and non-breeding males. We
also predict no difference in V1aR expression among females between seasons
