Yale art student lies about faking miscarriages for an art exhibit?

author Posted by: Admin on date Feb 25th, 2008 | filed Filed under: Art
what ever asked:


Shvarts described her project to the Yale paper as a huge cube hanging from the ceiling and swathed in plastic sheeting smeared with her blood from the reported miscarriages. Videos taken of what the college student claimed were self-induced abortions in her bathtub will be projected both on the cube’s sides and on the gallery walls.

What do you think of this story, even if it is a faked thing it is still disturbing, yes or no?

Here is a link to the full story if you haven’t heard about it…..

awww sugar asked:


I’ve came down to two choices for college and it’s definitely gonna be UCLA or Academy of art (san fransico). But I still have the summer before fall to decide (sorta). I am a facebook user and I tried to join the network but it wouldn’t let me. I left my high school network and it still didn’t work but I have figured out how people join multiple school networks. If anyone has an valid ucla/academy student email (that works and hasn’t expired) and is willing to help me, please reply. I will provide my login info and could pay you through Paypal if you’d like.

oh my email is hollister_babii_doll@yahoo.com

thanks!!! muah!! xo(=

Hello,
we are on a tight budget and our wedding cake is last to pick out! My sisters boss suggested a culinary arts student to make us a beautiful cake and it would help them out in return (experience, credits etc.) If anyone knows of someone local please let me know. The wedding will be near Schaumburg, IL.
Thanks in advance

I need help making a quilt of student art?

roomwithaview asked:


I am helping 4 classes make a quilt this year for the school auction. The first grade classes are making a fairy tale quilt and the 4th graders are making a California missions quilt. My mom will be putting everything together and tying it, but she doesn’t know about getting art to fabric.

I have given the teachers a 8-1/2 x 8-1/2 pcs of plain white paper. I am having the students draw their image with pencil only and then go over it with black marker. They will be giving me the outline only, sort of like a coloring book, I plan on getting that onto the 10×10 muslin (that where my question comes in) and then giving the muslin to the students and having them color it with fabric markers.

SO…How is it best to get the image from paper to muslin? Is using a light box and tracing with a black fabric pen the best way? Also, what coloring will look best on the fabric (and be do-able for 1st and 4th graders to do)? Markers, Pigment, fabric crayons?

Thanks in advance for anyones help

2tuforu asked:


I am thinking of applying there next year, so I have a few questions:
-do you think Otis is liberal or conservative?
-does Otis provide meals on campus, or do you have to buy your own? are both expensive? are they even good?
-what are some good hangout spots surrounding the school?
-what’s the social scene like? is there partying or drinking, etc?
I’d appreciate all the help I can get.
Thanks.
Thanks
