Photos by Andy Cripe and Dusty Etzel University art student displays completed master's thesis By ). A. Hollingsworth (M I hr tmrold While most artists go to a gallery to display their work. University art student |oe Wayman has taken his work to the street Wayman. a graduate student working for his master's in visual arts, first erected his unfinished master's thesis the week of May 1H spring term. He displayed the completed 12 foot by 24 fool project Mon day near Chapman Hall. For his thesis Wayman took a half-tone photograph of Ronald Reagan and a soldier surveying North Korean defenses in 11182. re-photographed it, enlarged it and transferred the image onto masonite and lumlier with a slide projector. The im age was then carefully penciled in and (Minted bv hand. “I want to figure out a way to get it in front of people," he said. "They have to deal with this in their environment. Hopefully it w ill get a few nods from peo ple on their way to class." Some students had more than nods to offer. "I have respect for President Reagan — it (the art work) signifies America," said Scott Brown, a history student. "If we didn't have defense we wouldn't have freedom." Brown added "I really don't care It's just there,” said Morgan Wilson, who is majoring in comparative literature. For most students the image was political. "1 think art can be a reflection of our iuesda\ time*," said art student kelvyanne Tooh. "I think it's significant the way they (Way man) linked the military with Reagan. I mean they don't link Reagan with education." site added Materials for the pmject cost approx imately $250 and countless hours of work. VVayman said. Wayman started working on the project in January His wife, two children, neighbors and friends chipped in to complete it Painting the image was the most time-consuming, he said. Why all the fuss? Evidently, Wayman had motivations other than completing his master's thesis. "I feel I can't have peace myself until I address world peace,” he said 'If we con centrate on the problem everyone's mind will lie directed toward it It (the project) |lll\ 2H l'IB7 Oregon Hath is a constant reminder of the political reality that we live in." he said. YVayman feels the effect of the project differs from a photograph in a newspaper because of the si/.e change and the point of concentration, he sain "It dues a different thing to your head. It makes you think about history — the villians and the heroi s.” he said "It's like current hindsight It shows what he (Keagan) represents The monumental aspect of the individual. "I am thinking about raising the money to enlarge it five limes as a monument to stupidity. Then people would really notice it." he added. The project is just one part of Wayman's master’s thesis He also plans to write a paper on the reactions ot various people to Knierald I lit? structure in several environments. “It's like a pottin It is a statement about his feelings,” said David Foster, a member of the committee that is evaluating VVayman's thesis. “It's a piece of visual communication." Wayman brought the project to Nevada June 13-15 to protest the testing of nuclear weapons. "People that support me are people op posed to military might. They have a com mittment to demilitarization." he said After displaying the exhibit at the University. VVayinun hopes to display the project at all of the Par.-10 Conference col leges. Commenting on the possible reac tions to the construct at a more conser vative college, he said he expects to lie pelted with rocks. NKH! NKW!
