Sl students will be
displaying their art
Friday at 7 p.m. in the
Shore Art Gallery in the
Don Morris building.
The art will be shown
from a more scientific
perspective.
"Assorted Pieces from
Willing Subjects" will
be displayed amongst
models with painted on
organs.
Jeremy Mckissick se-
nior interior design ma-
jor from San Antonio w ill
be showing a model of a
new psychology build-
ing. He will not haxe any
paintings or traditional
art up; instead he will be
showing different types
of floor plans.
Mckissick said the
show gi es him the feel-
ing of leaving himself
open for exeryone to ex-
amine. He said the origi-
nal title "Willing Cadax-
crs" represented these
feelings
"That's where we
thought of having lie
models painted like they
were being dissected"
he said.
Brittany Koonce echoed
Mckissick's feelings about
the show.
"It has to do with put-
ting ourselves on display
and just be willing to do
that; for people to look
at our art and analyze it
and kind of pick it apart"
Koonce said.

as being realistic and
made mostly of human

til last semester.
Adam Carter senior
graphic design major
from Lansficld will dis-
play prints paintings
and illustrations. The il-
lustrations resemble car-
icatures that arc digitally
colored.
"Every thing kind of
has more of a light heart-

paintings that I've done
arc a little more free
instead of structured.
There more kind of rus-
tic" he said.
Lauren Gray senior
graphic design major
from Tulsa Okla will
have photography art
photography and prints.
Most of her photographs
arc of nature and her
prints are of landscapes.
One of her photos is
a magnified black and
white photograph ironed
onto fabric and framed
on top of burlap.
"I think it's one of my
favorite ones" she said.
Gra said at the art
show she w ants ev erv one

jectively and just take it
for what it's worth. Open
your eves and just enjoy
it for the beauty that it
has in it."
The art will be in the

week after the show.
