Alumna Artist and Entrepreneur Selected as Commencement Speaker
Alumna artist and entrepreneur Dusty Folwarczny will provide the commencement address during the graduation ceremony, Dec. 17.
A native of Winfield, Missouri, Folwarczny earned her BFA in sculpture from Truman in 2003 and made her way to Chicago in 2006 to establish her sculpting practice and work in management consulting, a career that would later be the genesis for a business idea. She creates large abstract steel forms salvaged from industrial steel. Folwarczny’s goal as a sculptor is to create and place public art all over the world with the hope that her sculptures will be seen and help transform a site into a more beautiful place, all while exposing more people to sculpture. Her work has been exhibited in the Chicago Loop, Navy Pier, the Willis Tower (aka, Sears Tower), Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park, and is part of the Delta Sky Lounge corporate collection.
