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 Jada Fortson. 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
Sequence variability in UL39 and UL53 genes of Herpes simplex virus 1 may contribute to neurovirulence
No full textPresentation by Tina Dillas ('18) delivered at the Rhodes College Undergraduate Research and Creative Activity Symposium (URCAS).Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) is a neuroinvasive human pathogen that evades host immune
responses and results in life-long infection. Primary infections generally occur around the mouth
and lips from viral transmission though oral secretions. Following infection, HSV-1 spreads to
the host nervous system and establishes latency. The virus’s ability to reactivate infection
depends on the site of infection, virus strain, and host immunity. HSV-1 infection normally
causes mild symptoms; however, in rare cases the virus enters the central nervous system and, if
untreated, can lead to fatal encephalitis. The purpose of this study was to explore genetic
variation in HSV-1 and consider how frequently differences that may contribute to central
nervous system virulence occur in circulating viral strains.Twenty-two HSV strains were
obtained from collaborators at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. These strains
vary in their neurovirulence as determined previously in mouse studies. Here, we assessed
variation in the DNA sequences of two viral genes designated UL39 and UL53 (encoding
ribonucleotide reductase and glycoprotein K, respectively) due to their involvement in HSV-1
neurovirulence. Sequences of these genes from the twenty-two viral strains were compared to
identify variations that correlate with high or low neurovirulence
Red and Green Tree
No full textThis digital image was taken by a member of the Memphis Art Project team. It was uploaded to DLynx during summer 2019.A tree, with the trunk made of red leaves on an orange background and the canopy or green leaves and backgroud, sits over striped blue pattern. The leaves making the tree seem to be flying off the mural. This work was created as part of Paint Memphis 2018. It can be found off 711 Doctor Martin Luther King Jr Ave

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

Sorry (I'm Not Sorry)
No full textPresentation by Mattie Boyd ('18) delivered at the Rhodes College Undergraduate Research and Creative Activity Symposium (URCAS) as part of the Studio Art Senior Thesis Exhibition: Enter Through the Window. Graduating senior studio art majors discuss their individual research, processes, and resulting artwork, which is currently on display in Clough-Hanson Gallery as part of the Senior Thesis Exhibition.Scrolling through social media I see models living a lavish dream life and wish it could be me but I don't have the body for that outfit, sweetheart. Rather than accept this I turned to photography as a way to insert myself into the fantasies I saw coming to life on my news feed, billboards, and print ads. There is so much that control that I have over how my body is perceived through the lens. I've spent literal years learning what angles make my face look the slimmest, how not to let my arms hang naturally so the fat isn't pushed to the front. However, now I'm employing saturated colored light, camera angles, and set materiality to allow my body to be my body without many changes. Learning to glorify what I've been born with rather than finding ways to disguise or cheat it. Appropriating the narratives of my everyday scroll into my work aims to normalize my body in those spheres. By forcing my non-normative body into these familiar and highly consumed and accepted images as the central focus, I'm asking the viewer and myself to question who is and isn't allowed to be seen
