The 2024 Senior Exhibition features the culminating Capstone projects of Studio Art majors who have concentrated in painting, photography, print and digital media, and sculpture during their time at Colby. This year’s contributing seniors are Amani Tran, Annika Hogan, Ari Trueba, Ava Stotz, Emma Baker, Isabella Farren, Jess Xing, Lily Craig, Maeve DiSandro, Marthe Unkap, Max Jacobs, Mina Ekstrom, Morgan Cheney, Raghav Kadambi, Ric Yamamoto, Samah Mahamedzein, Viva Goetze, and Vivian Sullivan.
There will be brief remarks and an awards ceremony at 5:15 pm. The Colby Art Department awards two prizes to Studio Art majors at the end of each academic year: The Charles Hovey Pepper Prize, and the President’s Prize. A panel of specialists in the field selects the recipient from among the students represented in the Senior Exhibition.
While at the opening, you can pick up a copy of the exhibition catalog. This color publication is a collaboration between Studio Art and Art History students: it contains reproductions of the works in the show, artists’ statements, and critical essays by students enrolled in AR356: Writing Art Criticism.
