Grace is graduating senior majoring in History of Art and Architecture with a minor in Spanish and a certificate in Latin American Studies.
Last summer, the University Honor’s College awarded her an off-campus research award, which Grace used to travel to Houston and Austin, Texas. There, she investigated an exhibition, Rhodislandia, by Brazilian artist Hélio Oiticica, a project done under the guidance of Professor Jennifer Josten.
She is an aspiring journalist and has written for The Pitt News for the past four years. She especially enjoys writing about art, culture, food and travel and her long term goal is to become a narrative journalist.
For HAAARCH 2015, Grace will be presenting a paper entitled "The University Studio: Oiticica, Rhodislandia, and Peripheral Strategies in Art Making."
