Syd Yontez
Syd Yontez is a senior from Highland Park, Ill., majoring in fine arts, philosophy and graphic design.
"Lots of art is accompanied by cute n’ crude sets of words aimed to summarize meaning and purpose, a route ironically bypassing the real meat of the work itself. My intention, if an artist’s input should even be counted, is to invite, not to explain. Boredom, after all, like curiosity, only dances when there is nothing ready-made to satisfy it."
Bella Wright
Bella Wright is a senior from Rock Island, Ill., majoring in art history and minoring in studio art.
"A large portion of this paper will be dedicated to graffiti artists such as Jean-Michel Basquiat, as well as other mixed media and artists. I am going to form a timeline using art to call attention to the deep rooted history of police brutality in America. I also want to include a personal aspect to this project, so I was considering interviewing members of my family about their experiences being a person of color in America."
