Erica LoPresti - Final Blog Assignment

Marcy Geyer is Bloomsburg University Alumni, and she gave a very interesting presentation on her personal printmaking pieces in the Student Services Center. She was very into her work and had many topics that influenced her printmaking. She had a variety of prints that showed topics such as bullying and gay rights. It was very obvious that Marcy had very strong feelings toward people bullying others and gay rights/marriage. She was even a member of LGBT while she attended Bloomsburg.

Knowing that Marcy had very strong feelings towards her topics, made me appreciate her and enjoy her artwork even more because she was so enthusiastic about it. My favorite piece of hers were the pillows she made and placed all over campus to raise awareness of LGBT rights. I thought this was a very creative idea and an interesting way to spread information to raise awareness about a well-known problem. Overall, I enjoyed listening to her presentation and learning about her works.
