Senior Exhibit II 2026

The second senior exhibit of 2026 features four more senior art majors, working in various mediums. Their exhibit will begin on April 8, and we will host an opening reception on Sunday, April 12 at 6:00 p.m.. The opening receptions will include short remarks by each artist. Join us for fellowship, light refreshments, and our senior's final undergraduate works.

Hannah Clearwater

Hannah's work explores the ugly in the beautiful. With each vessel differently built with intentional form and color choice, I hope to capture the existential impact we as humans have inflicted on our environment. The things that were once beautiful and vibrant are being dulled from our touch. Each piece features something beautiful in nature, but when you take a second to ponder, you see the ugly truth about the effects we cause on such things.

Kat Columna

This exhibit combines comfort and coming-of-age as the artist explores the topics of shared nostalgia and her fascination with the underwater world. Kat's work depicts the shift from once brought her comfort in her childhood to a visual representation of her battles to find comfort as an adult. She uses Turritopsis Dohmii, or the immortal Jellyfish, as a manifestation of her growth in learning self-reliance and self-awareness.

Kelsey Moore

We are moving at such a rapid pace. As we move we only stop to pause for the truly beautiful, which we paint as few and far between, in a vacation far away or in a once-in-a- lifetime sunrise. This exhibit explores what we can see if we slow down. The "truly beautiful" is in the everyday, in the deteriorating roads, in the factoris behind our houses, and in the nature that weaves between.

Camila Perez Diener

As an artist Camila has explored so many mediums that she has a hard time choosing one as her favorite. This is reflected in her show as the overarching theme of looking up and slowing down - displayed in five different mediums. Camila has felt that looking up to the sky and up from her phone has helped her remember to slow down and take a deep breath. She hopes this exhibit can be a reminder to everyone who enters to take a break from what is pushing them forward and appreiate the moment they are living in.
