Professor Nicholas Sevigney has been teaching in higher education since 1996 and is PSU’s Multi-Media (3D Design and Ceramics) Program Manager and Coordinator. He is dedicated to a diverse perspective in the field of 3D Multi-Media and the Arts, the ever-changing requirements of being an academic studio artist, and makes a point to communicate this knowledge through his teaching practice. He is inspired by activist Charles Kernaghan who said ”Who will save the precious memories in life that mean nothing because we can’t make money off them? That must be the role of the artist, to save those precious things.” Professor Sevigney’s goal as an artist is to make those precious things and as an educator to support people on the road to creating work of their own.
