About

Project Creator

Hi my name is Mallory Nelson I am a sophmore at Union College, studying studio Arts.  I am involved on campus with My Minerva house, as a Member of UProgram, and am a founding member of Kappa Delta Phi NAS at Union College. This project was created as a Pop-Up event for AAH-218-01 Creative Placemaking & Art. For this project we were tasked to create a sense of community using art, and our professor challenged us to find a way to build community within the confinsed of social distancing. For this project I wanted to focus on my Union community. One which has been much harder to connect to being thousands of miles and 3 timezones away and at times feels like it might as well be on a different planet. When thinking about Union and what it means to be on campus and how to bring that feeling into a virtual space I thought of the Nott Memorial. The center peice of our campus, a building we all walk by almost every day and I though about how it can mean so many different things to each on of us, and that is why for this project I wanted to challenge my community to share what the the Nott Memorial means to them.
