Memories in Flux | Posted on:2008-01-28 | Degree:M.F.A | Type:Thesis | University:Stephen F. Austin State University | Candidate:Olson, Michael Scott | Full Text:PDF | GTID:2445390005968465 | Subject:Fine Arts | Abstract/Summary: | | The works in the exhibition Memories in Flux consist of a series of photo silk screen prints of pre-twentieth century Italian architecture, which were printed using modified fluorescent acrylic paints. The prints are lit using twelve four-foot black light tubes set into six stand alone fixtures with a minimal amount of ambient incandescent light in the gallery.; I took several digital snapshots of antiquated buildings. The photos caused me to reflect on foundational memories and experiences that I had from living in Houston. When I returned from Italy, I found that some of the images of buildings had imposing forms that reminded me of some of the time I had spent in downtown Houston because they appeared as the skyscrapers of the Old World. | Keywords/Search Tags: | Memories | | Related items |
