Argyle by Daniele Frazier, 2010

Daniele Frazier completed her first outdoor public art piece as a recipient of the Socrates Sculpture Park Emerging Artist Fellowship in Queens, New York. Both the park and the fellowship were founded by sculptor Mark DiSuvero. Her piece, titled Argyle, was created in the park's outdoor studios over the summer. It stands at 16 feet tall and 10 inches wide and is constructed out of marine plywood, coated with industrial enamel, and depends on a 2-foot steel and concrete footing underground. So far, it had survived one tornado. The piece will be on view at the park, 7 days a week, until March 6, 2011 http://www.socratessculpturepark.org

At Oxbow, I got to try inquiry-based learning for the first time. This allowed me to control the amount of rigor and the depth of research in my topic, as well as picking a topic that I found most interesting. From going through this new process of learning, I feel excited to go back to the rigor of my sending school to apply the inquiry-based perspective to my classes.

Oxbow was, without a doubt, the best part of my high school experience. A year after leaving, and I still feel as though it were yesterday that I was sitting on the lawn, eating in the dining hall, and laughing with my friends in the studios.

Artistically, I learned a lot of new techniques and mediums while here. I had access to much more than before and I made the most of it. I tried everything I could and always talked to my teachers and peers about new ways I could make art. Every so often, I completely stepped out of my comfort zone. Experimenting with technique and testing my artistic boundaries has helped me realize how many paths I have to choose from in the art world and that makes me excited for the future.
