"Shoutout to Ashley Vargas Colima, a student at MSU pursuing a degree in Graphic Design! Most of her art is influenced by her Mexican culture and how she navigates through a sense of belonging.

Here's her statement,
"Growing up in Las Vegas, I was immersed by my Mexican culture. I was surrounded by my people, our traditions, corrido and mariachi music, the language, traditional foods: it all gave me a sense of security and belonging. Moving almost 1,400 miles away to the North was a big change. I felt I lost my home and community.
By bringing back elements I once left behind, I’m able to help myself, and others, reconnect and build a new sense of belonging despite similar experiences of displacement. I hope others are inspired to reconnect with the traditions and memories that ground their own identities in sharing my story...""

Stop by the NAC until June 5 to see her beautiful prints!!

CAPSTONE SHOUTOUT! Kyler Meigs is working towards a Bachelor of Arts in Graphic Design here at MSU! His art is inspired by mental health and is used for self-expression.

Here's his statement,
"'Within Me' is a series of collages that questions what identity means. I use art as a tool to convey and help me navigate my mental health, which is something I have struggled with all my life. This series specifically is a way to advocate for mental health that is often misunderstood by the public, as well as a method to help connect parts of me to the audience in a meaningful and insightful way. .....
Collaging in and of itself correlates to mental health, because it involves wrestling with the deconstruction and reconstructing of the media. I use my stipple drawings as a collage method to help the pieces feel more original and unique to my style of the art making process.
I hope my art lets you know that through time and the life seasons, you are never alone, and that someone else has felt the same way at one point."

Come see his collection of collages here at the NAC!
