MFA Computer Arts Thesis Exhibition

Tuesday, May 29 – Saturday, June 16

Reception: Thursday, June 7, 6:00 – 8:00pm

School of Visual Arts presents “Life on Pluto,” featuring selected thesis projects of the MFA Computer Arts class of 2018. Curated by Lotte Marie Allen, project coordinator, and Angelica Vergel, assistant to the chair, the exhibition is on view from Tuesday, May 29, through Saturday, June 16, at the SVA Chelsea Gallery, 601 West 26th Street, 15th floor.

“Life on Pluto” explores the different themes and media of digital art. “In this annual event, MFA Computer Arts graduating students showcase not only their thesis projects, but also how they envision the future of art-making,” Allen and Vergel say. “The thesis exhibition is both an end and a beginning for our students,” says Terrence Masson, chair of MFA Computer Arts. “Regardless of the media and format of their work, their learning process has instilled a new, deep-rooted sense of excitement and possibility for their lives and careers after graduation.”
