Peter Yumi spent a year traveling around the country practically homeless, and after pouring water on his computer in frustration, he started creating photo-collages based on photoshop techniques, creating layers with actual photographs instead of digital translucence.  His artwork, in addition to other up and coming Colorado Artists is on display at the MSU Center for Visual Art.   Student curator Madeliene Kattman has put together this eclectic collection of artwork that takes a twist on the collage, entitled  ah· sem· blahj.  Among the other artists showcased in the collection are April Frankenstein, who breathes new life to old landscape photographs she collects from estate sales and flea markets by combining them geometrically with other vintage prints from the 50's and 60's and Meghan Pohlod, a printmaker who's first foray into the paper arts is a dreamy landscape she envisioned as she watched the sunrise on the mountains.  The show is up until January 24, 2014.  Check it out!
