Make to Know
November 28 – December 9

Throughout the course of this semester, graduate students in the Art & Design Department have been reading Lorne Buchman’s Make to Know: From Spaces of Uncertainty to Creative Discovery for their interdisciplinary graduate seminary class. This book explains the idea of “make to know” as learning by doing, in which artistic discovery occurs through the process of making and exploration.

Using this book as a starting point, the students have had meaningful discussions centered around planned spontaneity, creative entry points, and how processes, materials, and concepts can guide the making process.

As a result, they have brought new approaches into their studios to guide them through their making process throughout the semester. Make to Know is a visual display of the results of those explorations, in progress and in their final forms.

Socially Distanced, co-curated by Graduate Assistants Shauna Le Ann Smith and Nadia Issa
May 24-June 24, 2021

The term “social distance” is incredibly prevalent in our current day-to-day, and has a long, complicated history. In the nineteenth century, “social distance” was a euphemism used by the British to talk about class and by Americans to talk about race. In today’s time, it most commonly refers to the six feet distance that must be maintained to stop the spread of the coronavirus. The aim of this exhibition is to refer, criticize, interpret, or reinterpret “socially distanced”. Exhibiting artists addressed the theme of “socially distanced” in a multitude of explorative ways.

Mapping Awareness: Social Objects and Detritus, co-curated by Director of Exhibitions, Jodi McCoy and Graduate Assistant, Shauna Smith
June 20 – August 5, 2022

Rooted in our connection to place, Mapping Awareness: Social Objects and Detritus explores the cartographical nature of marking cultural detritus with social objects. Featuring work from Catherine Reinhart and Giovanni Valderas, this exhibition showcases social practice-based works of art that document the detritus of cultural domesticity and neighborhoods. Each artist uses interdisciplinary practices to raise awareness about their locale, from the intimate scale of caregiving within a home to community-wide housing issues.
