Student Work
Architects create unique and highly inventive realities that emphasize organization, proportion, and beauty, as well as material properties, budgets and structural systems. We believe that architectural education offers a way of making and thinking that enables our students and graduates to do good in the world.

Student Murals on Campus

In May 2019, Matt Catanzaro '20 and Nick Arcarese '22 painted the University motto “Sanctitas, Scientia, Sanitas,” Latin for “Holiness, Knowledge, Health,” on the L-shaped masonry wall behind the Insalaco Center for Studio Arts.
Matt Catanzaro '20 painted the university mascot, the Marywood Pacer, against the university name in gold letters in May 2019. The fence mural, about 10 feet tall and 20 feet long, is located behind the Learning Commons.
The Art Therapy Mandala is a giant wooden puzzle that's made from the collected pieces of over two hundred participants from an Art Therapy Symposium. Encircled on the mandala are the inspired words of Sr. Corita Kent, IHM: "To create means to relate, the root meaning of the word ‘art’ is to fit together, and we all do this every day.”
