SUMMARY:Auditions:Path Forward
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: December 3-13Opening Reception: Friday\, December 5\, 6-8 p.m.\nPath Forward\, the 2025 Stamps BA Senior Studio Exhibition\, weaves meditations on nature\, the inner and outer workings of our human bodies from the functional to the phenomenal\, the paces of daily lives whether reading or rushing\, in friendship or in family and exploring memories of real and imagined pasts as they intersect with the here and now. Featuring work in experimental video\, fashion\, painting\, illustration and sculpture\, Path Forward postulates stepping stones for near and possible futures.\nThe Bachelor of Arts (BA) Senior Studio (ARTDES 401) is offered for Stamps BA students in their final year of study. The BA Senior Studio Exhibition offers these students the opportunity to build on the particular characteristics of the BA degree\, and focus on creating and exhibiting a culminating\, self-directed project. Students work independently or collaboratively to define a project plan with goals\, benchmarks\, and a timeline. \nThe BA Senior Studio Exhibition is a new tradition for Stamps. These students and instructors have worked collaboratively to produce a fully self-directed show from start to finish\, emphasizing the skills and practices associated with producing professional exhibitions\, in addition to their studio work. \nFaculty\nNick Tobier\, ProfessorMichaela Nichelle\, GSI\nBA Student Artists &amp\; Designers\nJulia BonannoLina HashimotoMargherita HillAnna HowellRiley HuhtaLaura JhiradUrvi JoshiAmanda KubitzGreta LeishearStella MooreEmma OstermeyerJaime SalmonsonMeredith SouleAna SwansonSam Weinfield
