Layers of the Human Experience
Integrative Studio II Class Exhibition
Posted in: Announcements
The Department of Art & Design is delighted to announce the Integrative Studio II Class exhibition, Layers of the Human Experience. This exhibition will be presented in the Finley Gallery & the adjoining Annex Galleries from March 5th through March 26th, with an opening reception on March 5th from 3:00 pm until 5:00 pm.
Layers of the Human Experience is the culmination of a six-week journey shared by visual arts students across both sections of Integrative Studio II led by Professors Jess Blaustein & Simone Couto. Taking the piñata as the starting point of their investigation, the artists delved deeply into the subject to expand their understanding of its history, materiality, and cultural significance. Building on their research, they created a range of works with distinct approaches to ideas of construction, deconstruction, and transformation—focusing, in their words, on “narratives of emotion, identity, and experiences that make us human.” The artists themselves collectively organized this public sharing of their works—each section finding its own way within the shared space of the galleries.
