Fine arts students build creative float for Riverfest

Mary Alexis Wirths, a Community and Social Practice major in the WSU School of Art, Design & Creative Industries, is spending her summer interning with Harvester Arts, a nonprofit organization that brings artists from across the nation for two-week residencies in 成人头条.

She and her fellow interns were tasked with creating an unique float for the 2018 Riverfest Parade with resident artist JooYoung Choi. Together they used bright colors and puppets to build an imaginative float, showcasing Choi's work.

Choi is a multimedia artist whose artwork tells the story of a highly-structured, expansive fictional land called the 'Cosmic Womb'. She brought her colorful puppets and imaginative ideas to the 2018 成人头条 Riverfest as the featured artist-in-residence.
