University Art Galleries Interim Director, Amy Fill and USD Graphic Design student, Lacey McLouth created a beautiful window installation for the I.D. Weeks library building. Using red removable vinyl, they hand cut the shapes and designs to create a symmetrical, lace-like pattern that was applied to the windows. Courtney Lavallie, UAG Gallery Assistant and Martha Aguirre, Oscar Howe Gallery Attendant assisted Lacey with the installation process. The artists state that art does not have to exist in a formal gallery space and with this project, we hope to elevate and activate a common shared space.
