USU Student Teams up With Local Artist on Senior Capstone Design Project

Описание: When she was about four, her favorite Christmas gift was clothes — at least according to a note her Mom wrote on her behalf. Certainly makes sense for a kid who looked forward to picking out her own outfits for the day when she was in elementary school.

This trend continued, when at 13 or 14, YouTube videos about upcycling thrifted clothing helped her on her self-taught journey to learn how to sew.

Now, as a graduating senior in Outdoor Product Design and Development at USU, it’s safe to say that Anna Holland has followed her passions.

But, coincidently, it was another YouTube video that she came across a few years ago that shaped her senior capstone project — a three-piece collection aimed at the needs of people who use wheelchairs.

For her project, Anna was connected with a local non-profit, Jump the Moon, and an artist there named Kaya Eccles — who, among other mediums and methods, utilizes an adapted motorized wheelchair to paint with.

In this video learn about the collaboration between the two of them, and what came of it.

Since 1888, Utah State University established itself as a premier research institution known through the world for its intellectual and technological leadership. USU’s main campus is in Logan, plus 30 campuses throughout Utah. And as long as WiFi is available, you can be an Aggie anywhere through USU Online.

USU competes in 16 NCAA Division I sports. Our student section, the HURD, is one of the loudest and rowdiest in the nation. The diehards become True Aggies by kissing on the block “A” on Homecoming. Adrenaline junkies sled down Old Main hill between classes or rock climb outside. And everyone eats Aggie Ice Cream — even with a foot of snow on the ground.
