ARTISTIC SPIRIT: Lilith Shane's graduate thesis exhibition includes this piece called "Fading Spirit," which depicts an Indian woman's soul moving to the spirit world. This life-size, three-dimensional creation was made from wood, plastic, paper, string, tissue paper, cloth, beads and wool, among other materials. Shane, a master's candidate in graphic design, exhibited 15 pieces of her work July 13-17 in Ford Gallery.
