2023 Exhibitions
Departmental Show | Junior Level Juried Exhibition (March 18, 2023 – April 5, 2023)

The exhibition represents a culmination of this semester’s Junior level students from mid-level art classes such as Intermediate Digital Painting, Cartooning, Text & Image, 3D & Extended Media, Painting, and Time. The exhibit will include a variety of media exploring a range of themes, and producing compelling works that communicate diverse concepts.
Integrative Studio II Show (February 28, 2023 – March 13, 2023)
This exhibition was a culmination of a six-week journey shared by visual arts students across both sections of Integrative Studio II. Taking the piñata as the starting point of their investigation, the artists delved deeply into the subject to expand their understanding of its historical content, materiality, and cultural significance. Building on their research, they created a range of works with distinct approaches to ideas of construction, deconstruction, and transformation. The artists themselves collectively organized this public sharing of their works—each section finding its own way within the shared space of the galleries.
