Controlled Chaos

Slade's workspace
We're back from Thanksgiving break rested and ready for the final push. Final Projects are due in 6 days, and the studios have reached an expected state of disarray. One of the most exciting aspects of Final Projects is watching each student create a workspace for themselves; some are intentional about it, and for others it happens in a haphazard way. Each workspace is a microcosm, offering a sneak peek into the artist's mind and providing hints at what the final artwork will look like. There is an ebb and flow of chaos and organization. Some people need a spotless workspace, each brush and pen arranged in an exact order. Others get lost in what looks to an outsider like a pile of junk, and somehow, art is born out of the chaos. For others, the chaos is the artwork. Stay tuned for more posts this week as we continue to document the mess artwork in progress.
