Abstract

The Department of Art proudly presents Spring Storm 2016, an exhibition showcasing the work of graduating seniors in the Department of Art, the Digital Arts Program, and the Product Design Program. The exhibition, now in its fourth year, celebrates the culmination of their studies and is a wonderful opportunity for fellow students, friends, family, and the community to recognize their creative achievements. Through senior capstone or advanced courses, students learn to synthesize concept, material, image, and form to create unique works of art and design. As undergraduates studying art and design, our students learn to think responsively and responsibly, ask questions, explore creative ideas, and experiment with materials and processes. Their work represents a broad range of practices reflecting the scope of our curriculum, which includes photography, sculpture, ceramics, metalsmithing and jewelry, painting, drawing, fibers, and printmaking, as well as print media, animation, video, and interactivity in digital arts, and the use, design, and production of consumer products. The studio-based practice and cross-disciplinary philosophy of our program are rooted in a strong liberal arts education within the research university. The energy is remarkable. Creative projects occupy studios, classrooms, gallery spaces, hallways, and outdoor spaces during Spring Storm 2016. As faculty members, we are honored to usher our graduating seniors into the world as emerging artists and designers with a strong sense of their own work and voice within the context of their field and the greater contemporary world.
