Rachele Riley (MFA Graphic Design 2005) will be chairing a panel “Nerve Impulse: How Graphic Designers Respond to the World” at the ARTspace conference in 2009. The panel will explore contemporary graphic designers whose creative work addresses issues of social and political concern.

In addition to chairing the conference Rachele will be leaving for Nevada in early May to research the history of the Nevada Testing Site and to learn more about the impact of military activity on the people and landscape in this region of the U.S. to work on her project “Evolution of Silence.” This project is supported by a Faculty Research Grant from UNCC. More info on the concept and itinerary can be read online at: http://www.racheleriley.com/work_evolsilence.htm
