Integrative Studio II Exhibition

The Department of Art & Design is delighted to announce this semester’s final Integrative Studio II Student-led Exhibitions with Professors Jess Blaustein, Simone Couto, and Genevieve Lowe. This one day event presents three connected exhibitions in the Student Center Ballrooms A, B, and C on December 17th from 2:00pm till 4:00pm.

Integrative Studio II

SECTION 01 In the Eye of the Beholder (Ballroom C)
In the Eye of the Beholder showcases a diverse range of artwork that invites viewers to reflect on the beauty, meaning, and interpretation that lies within personal perception. The exhibition highlights the intersection of memory and creativity, featuring pieces that evoke nostalgia while reimagining the familiar. Through various mediums and styles, the artists explore how individual experiences and perspectives shape the way we engage with art, encouraging dialogue about subjectivity and shared vision.

Frankie Christie, Nick Cruz, Gina Demartino, Sabrina Gatti, Aliyaa Hernandez, Larissa Levon-Zayas, Lara Maisonneuve, Gianna Morel, Jonathan Muruzumbay, Quara Phillips-Hill, Anacia Sessoms, Julea Sorrentino, Antonia Sussina, Grace Whitteaker, Margo Wittlinger, Valeria Zamora-Collazos

SECTION 02 Deep Dive Into the Soul (Ballroom B)
Deep Dive Into the Soul is the result of introspection among the artists in this exhibition. Reflecting on the past and learning from those experiences grants newfound insight to an individual and the world they find themselves in. The theme of introspection throughout the exhibition has allowed the artists to creatively express and reinterpret their understanding of the world around them through the contemplation of their own unique experiences and to understand their place within society.

Kelly Arita, Jivon Batres, Mae Elkovich, Tevin Gomez, Lauryn Jeffrey, Jiapsi Juarez-Cipriano, Carly Malavarca, Teiona Mcnair, Jake Pacheco, Gabriel Rodriguez, Nathalie Sanchez, Walaa Shaabneh, Brion Spruill, Kimberly Triana Vallejo, Joseph Visco, Odessa Whitlock

SECTION 03 Mindscapes: A Journey Through Imagination (Ballroom A)
Mindscapes: A Journey Through Imagination invites viewers to embark on a visual exploration of the mind’s inner-self. The exhibition’s theme, “Mindscapes,” offers a broad range of visual landscapes addressing emotions, thoughts and memories—those ever changing conditions where imagination and lived experience intertwine. Each work is a window into the artists’ unique creative and physical worlds, allowing viewers to engage with the thought-processes that shape their work.
