At U School, two groups of students were inspired by the mixed-media techniques of Martie Zelt, quilted works by Stephanie Santana, and the unique surfaces created by Nancy Hellebrand. With a focus on photography and collage, students crafted individual and collaborative projects including collages of digitally-printed photographs and momigami. They explored portraiture by transferring photographic self-portraits onto acetate and layering those over painted landscapes that featured self-representative symbolic imagery.
