-STELLAR LUNA
Description: Stellar Luna is a project that encapsulates my journey and growth as an artist. The animation is made one hundred percent on paper, only utilizing nothing but paper, pencils, sharpies, and a light table. Brought to life through stop motion camera work and slight digital editing. The work speaks to my goals and ambitions. As an artist, I've always drawn traditionally, and as I move into a professional setting, I want to make a piece that describes me as an artist no matter where I end up. Inspired by shonen manga and cartoons. I watched growing up, Stellar Luna is a tale that dives into the themes of self-identity, mutual understanding, and self love. I hope you enjoy the characters and story I’ve brought to life.

-EASTERN SWORD BIRD
Description: Our project is a team based exploration of live coding and our art. This project allowed us to create something near and dear to us, in the form of experiences we’ve had this semester. Throughout our artistic careers, we’ve strived to make memorable artwork that we could potentially be known for. From swords and birds, to Easter Island Heads, we took the entirety of this semester and put it into this performance.
