Austice, by Haley Slone
$310Haley is one of two winners of this year's ArtsGala Art competition and chosen by the ArtsGala host committee to be featured at this year's event. She is an Art BFA major with a minor in Spanish. She expects to graduate in 2025 and dreams of becoming a teacher.
Haley describes this piece, called Austice, as "kind of a lonely place" and the host committee loved how its black-and-white coloring matched this year's ArtsGala theme. "It's a night-time scene on campus, showing the Dunbar Library with its glowing interior lights spilling onto the parking lot," she said. "The fall weather combined with the dark, vacant scene feels bleak and cold, but the world inside the library looks warm and alive. I felt like the library was representational of learning and the business of academia. The brightness of the lights alludes to the brightness of scholars still awake and working to build their brighter futures."

Fever Dream by Rachel Unger
$250Rachel is one of two winners of this year's ArtsGala Art competition and chosen by the ArtsGala host committee to be featured at this year's event. She is an Art major and will graduate at the end of this semester. Her plans include gallery curation and applying the skills she learned at Wright State in advertising design.
Rachel's piece, Fever Dream, is a silkscreen monoprint in which she endeavored to showcase the beauty of the unexpected through abstraction.
"As I composed this piece, I wanted each layer to flow organically and involuntarily like a fever dream," she said. "As each color layer was added, I had no expectations, I let the process take control."
Size with frame: 23 1/4" wide x 30" high x 1" deep
