Exhibition

BFA Visual & Critical Studies presents "Making the Wheel," an open studios event curated by fourth-year students Anastasia Warren and Mason Wilson and featuring student work that encompasses a wide range of media, including special performances and limited edition prints.The artist studio is a sight of calculation and chance. It is a space that invites investigations that eventually manifest as methodology. "Making the Wheel" is an ode to inventing. Artists offer viewers a look into how one thing led to another and the vitality of their practice. Experiments of material tension, violence, healing, spacial optics and force are revealed in this exposé of process. Many of the artists featured are interdisciplinary, as is the nature of BFA Visual & Critical Studies. Using sculpture, video installation, printmaking and painting, "Making the Wheel" considers the series of efforts and personal victories that construct works of art. Featured artists include: Storm Ascher, Leah Bordenga, Jordan Boyce, Alexa Cabrera, Marine Chen, Akielah Ivy, Emily Jacoby, Olivia Li, Maya Lusky, Eden Miller, Brittney Najar, Meredith Padgett, Lauren Patrick, Erika Verhagen, Anastasia Warren, Samantha Whitlaw, Mason Wilson and Heru Zhao.
