I attended the massive Senior Show at OTIS last week.
After a bit of socializing with fellow alumni and industry peers, I explored the Fine Arts building.
My two photos of student work both involve altered photographs.

The galleries were situated in the [cleaned up] senior studios.
I was enthralled by this vestige of wall art. Was it an installation? Definitely looked deliberate.

I loved this treatment on the side of the Galef Center building --
playing with the "punch card grid" of the Ahmanson Hall building
(which you can see reflected in the windows). | |
I then went over to the Ahmanson Hall building and went directly to the Communication Arts floor.
There was a lot of cool environmental alteration which caught my attention.

The lockers were covered with post its. Lockerness completely camouflaged! |
Look at these painted stools!
Then mother nature drew me to the window...

I had to get out there -- nature won.
I was conveniently parked on the roof of the garage. I took many panoramic shots.
Here are two:
Apologies to the grads for bailing!
