Kathryn Proulx is a multidisciplinary designer living in
Fairfield, Connecticut. Currently my time is split between living and working in Connecticut and finishing my thesis work in Communication Design at
Parsons School of Design in Manhattan.
Prior to now, I have been the design assistant at
W Magazine, an award-winning fashion magazine published by Conde Nast, and the in-house designer and project manager for Art-Space, New Haven's premier contemporary art gallery.
Faux-beau.com is my avenue to share what I'm working on now, what inspires me, and to share my experience and advice to students who are interested in attending Parsons or art school in general.

Hello. Sorry that I’m leaving a comment irrelevant to the entry, but I’m quite worried… I’m planning on applying for Parsons in year 2010, and I did the Parsons Challenge. However, my topic was my great-grandmother, who is, well, a person in my familiar surroundings. I presented her in the perspective of her child, herself, and the nurse/maid. Do you think I should redo my challenge since the theme is not an “object, event, activity, or location” that is “new” or “overlooked”? For the perspective of her child, I drew her sitting on her wheelchair. For the one of herself, I drew her putting on make-up. As for the last point of view, I drew her raising her fist, which she often does at the nurse/maid.

I think if you are proud of the work that you are submitting, and feel strongly about it then there is no need to change it. However, what makes your grandmother ‘overlooked’ or ‘new’?
