Red Headed Frog

I happened to come upon a very happy couple of images taken during an event I participated in while still in school at the University of Advancing Technology. The event was called Art Through Chaos, and was sponsored by UAT and organized by Professor Paul Andrus. The Art Through Chaos piece, which many people at the university participated in, would be entered into a large student and faculty art exhibition the university organized.

On the morning of April 19th, students arriving at the university were greeted by an enormous blank canvas and a multitude of paint and art supplies. They were encouraged to participate by contributing their talents and creativity to the canvas. The idea was to echo Dr. Margaret Wheatley’s theories on systems thinking and management through artwork.

I believe this was one of the more exciting and memorable events I participated in during my time at UAT. Professor Andrus and the university administration planned and executed the event fabulously, and the end result was stunning.

The images were taken by Thomas Dziedzinski who is a fabulous photographer by the way. I actually wrote a little love note to Dennis on this piece, and it managed to stay. Additionally, Thomas took a photo of me participating, printed it out and contributed his photography to the canvas.

It was a very inspirational and fabulous event. I simply wanted to thank Professor Andrus and the university administration for the inspiration and fond memories.
