Christine Dichiara Exhibits Artwork in York College's Graphic Design Senior Exhibition

2012 Apr 4

Christine Dichiara of Clark Summit will exhibit artwork in York College's Graphic Design Senior Exhibition, which opens on April 13 in York College Galleries. Dichiara is the daughter of Michael and Donna DiChiara. Dichiara designed the cookbook "All We Do is Eat," which features favorite family recipes and photos. Throughout the book, family members are highlighted to connect the reader with the recipes on a personal level. "Before this project, recipes were scattered between families and there was no organization. With the creation of this book, everyone's recipes are in one place and easily accessible," said Dichiara. "All We Do is Eat" was designed in Adobe InDesign using photographs of the family recipes and old family photos. It may be purchased at www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/3071428.

Graphic design majors present thematically cohesive bodies of work showcasing the skills and techniques they have acquired at the College before leaving to pursue careers as professional artists and designers. The students work collectively during their final semester to refine their creative vision and learn to present themselves and their work in a professional manner. This process culminates with an exhibition of their work and Senior Portfolio Presentations.
