This document describes an art initiative called Nomas Projects based in Dundee, Scotland. It provides background on two guest artists, Lia Chavez and Linnea Spransy, who will be featured in an exhibition from May 7-11, 2014. Nomas Projects aims to contribute to the local arts scene through high quality shows, events, and publications exploring questions of art, life, and faith. It also discusses the artists' views on performance art and how inspiration can be methodically uncovered through contemplative practices.
On Friday, May 6, artwork will fill four floors of the Pennsylvania College of Art & Design as the Class of 2016 exhibit professional-level senior thesis projects in a variety of media, the culminating work of PCA&D’s 52 graduates in fine art, illustration, photography and graphic design. Enjoy this peek into the art and thoughts of a few of PCA&D's Seniors.
Explore the work behind eight boundary-defying Asian and Pacific Islander artists who flip the script on the all-too-common question, “where are you from?” to lay claim to the myriad identities that inspire their work.
Shakespeare was the reason why many people took interest in acting because his plays included either the tragic flaw of the protagonist or comic release which made people laugh in a hysterical manner. People do not need to be from literature background to know about him and his plays because he has imprinted on the minds and lives of the people in a benevolent manner...
Every year, creativity rises on the list of the most important skills as found in research by the World Economic Forum and LinkedIn. Creativity is key for businesses and for anyone looking to future proof their careers, including students are who’ve yet to start out.
In the face of this demand for creativity, the next generation must be equipped to imagine and create new possibilities and to embrace the creative spirit that makes us uniquely human. This is the drive behind the Adobe Creativity Scholarship—a college scholarship that provides young leaders around the world the opportunity to foster their creative skills—and one of the reasons we are so excited to announce the 2019 class of Adobe Creativity Scholars.

My work is based on geometric abstraction and the cube plays a central part of my proposal.
The cube represents a symbol of harmony, unity and balance of our life both internally and
as external.
This slide was made for the in-class presentation of "Elements in Visual Arts and Approach to Art Criticism" course at HKBU Academy of Visual Arts, which was taught by Dr. Daniel Lau Chak-kwong in 2007. The topic is "Happenings", which I apply the performance-art creations by Kwok Mang-ho, Ching Chin-wai and Pak Sheung-chuen as examples.

3. Bourriaud
“Artistic activity, for its part, strives to achieve modest connections, open
up (one or two) obstructed passages, and connect levels of reality kept
apart from one another…” (Relational Aesthetics, 1998)
Raban
“For better or worse, [the city] invites you to remake it, to consolidate it
into a shape you can live in. You, too. Decide who you are, and the city
will again assume a fixed form around you. Decide what it is, and your
own identity will be revealed, like a map fixed by triangulation. Cities,
unlike villages and small towns, are plastic by nature. We mould them in
our images: they, in their turn, shape us by the resistance they offer when
we try to impose our own personal form on them. In this sense, it seems
to me that living in a city is an art, and we need the vocabulary of art, of
style, to describe the peculiar relation between man and material that
exists in the continual creative play of urban living. (Soft City, 1974)
TRIANGUL ATION
Growing research focus
4. Asking;
* What impact do artists’ have?
* By what means?
* What is our function?
* What does the city need?
“I think artists have the amazing privilege of being able to shape our
futures. They are given the space and time to see/explore/feel the current
moment whilst also placing it in relation to the past and therefore have
the potential to dream of a variety of futures
In regards Dundee, I’d say it needs to recognise and be proud of its own
deep potential, as a city not quite like any other, rather than regenerating
every forty years as it attempts to model itself on other ‘successful’
models of a city ...
TRIANGUL ATION
A growth in perspective
5. “One medium of art tries to relate to another medium by defining and
describing its essence and form”
“Artists began to use their own literary and artistic genre of art to work
and reflect on another art to illuminate what the eye might not see in the
original, to elevate it and possibly even surpass it...”
“... We then need to challenge our own and each others practices whilst
also making engaging work that is necessary for the given moment and
accessible to a wider audience”
Interdisciplinary, collaborative, relational, clearing obstructions.

10. LIA CHAVEZ
& LINNEA SPRANSEY
7-11 May 2014 (Sunday PM /Evening)
Linnea Spransy’s paintings, drawings and installations are generated
using systems and rules, which are distillations of her interest in science,
philosophy, theology, and quantum physics. Graduating from Yale in
2001 with an MFA in painting, her work has been exhibited throughout
the United States and internationally at numerous academic institutions
and galleries and is featured in corporate collections. Spransy lives
in Kansas City, MO where she leads a rather unorthodox lifestyle,
architected entirely round her core values: spirituality, community, art,
and simplicity.
11. LIA CHAVEZ
& LINNEA SPRANSEY
7-11 May 2014 (Sunday PM /Evening)
Lia Chavez is a New York-based artist working in a wide range of media,
including performance, photographic processes, painting, sculpture and
installation. Her work investigates the astonishing mysteries of light, form
and interior space. Lia has been featured in a number of internationally
renowned venues, including the Venice Biennale, Istanbul Biennial, Frieze
Art Fair and The Armory Show. She was a fellow in gender theory and
visual cultures at Oxford and holds an MA in Photography and Master of
Philosophy in Visual Art from Goldsmiths College in London, where she
was also an ORSAS scholar.
12. LIA CHAVEZ
& LINNEA SPRANSEY
7-11 May 2014 (Sunday PM /Evening)
I approach performance art as a much-needed link between the
disembodied observation of positivist science and the immersive nature
of human experience; it’s something which I call “embodied research.”
As I have journeyed through intensive experiments in contemplative
disciplines such as prolonged fasting, meditation and silence, **I have
found that inspiration is far from arbitrary and can be methodically
mined. Moreover, as my senses have become more ajar, I have
discovered that the universe is heavily pregnant with inspiration. If you
listen closely, the whole world is singing.**
