Kelly Young's art exhibit, "Am I Who I Am?" will be on display in the University Center Art Gallery May 12 - June 9. Ten mixed media, self-portraits of Young (left) and 20 pieces of calligraphy will be featured during the show. At right is what Young calls "Self/Extraterrestrial Identity," an image of himself as an extraterrestrial, but with a human appearance. Young (A 1991), an illustrator/ designer for Media Design, says his art simulates images created by using the computer application Adobe PhotoShop. "There are images with shadows and overlaps, transparent images and opaque ones. There is a layer effect in this project which can't be created with oil painting alone," he says.
