Paintography exhibition to be on display at USDs Day Gallery
A description of the student art includes Matt Stone of Madison, S.D., who uses bold colors, quirky objects and raw energy to express the world around him on canvas and paper is featured in the exhibition and Aimee Kontz of Chamberlain, S.D., who uses paint on a canvas to explore the inner and outer territories of self. Andrea Logan of Vermillion uses a combination of theater and photography to create images based on her favorite childhood story, and Stephanie Jones of Elk Point, S.D., explores the depths of social and emotional tendencies that individuals deal with on a daily basis through painting. Lindsey McCann, a native of Sioux Falls, S.D., uses photography to explore environments and how they reflect the people who inhabited them.
