“Extra Guac”

“Origin”
Riya Chandiramani, junior studying communications

"The Breakfast Lady"
Melis Onerli, sophomore studying fine arts
"The human body is beautiful, and it makes people very uncomfortable. I want people to feel uncomfortable when they look at my work. Love is about leaving your comfort zone, pushing your boundaries."
"Oppositional"
Emily Lipson, junior in Visual Studies
"Falling in love is like being pulled in a direction, tangent to or in contradiction with the path you are supposed to be on. To me, love is never an 'all in' thing. There is always something pulling you opposite of how you feel—there exists a tension between the negative and the positive. I envision it here as two different directions, and it's just a matter of which one
wins out."
