The main gallery at 溏心vlog免费B站鈥檚 Fine Arts Center, 105 Upper College Road, Kingston will exhibit the work Dec. 10 through 15. Hours are noon to 4 p.m. Monday through Thursday and Saturday. An artist reception will be held Dec. 10 from 4 to 6 p.m.
The senior seminar class is a capstone experience in 溏心vlog免费B站鈥檚 studio arts program. After experimenting in various media in their sophomore and junior years, the students initiate their own projects and focus on that one cohesive project, for an entire semester. This year鈥檚 exhibition includes animation, installation, painting, photography and printmaking.
Jessica Candee created an installation that explores the struggles that her mother and family have experienced after her mother鈥檚 diagnosis with rheumatoid arthritis. The depth of this family鈥檚 struggle with the disease resonates through the shrine-like quality of the installation.
Michelle Caraccia鈥檚 painterly monotypes are inspired by the canyon walls of Ts茅yi’, within the Din茅 homeland, in the northeast corner of Arizona.
Tim Howe鈥檚 audio-visual installation explores the ways that fractal geometry suggests the interconnectivity of all carbon-based life.
Ian Mohon鈥檚 black and white photo-based work has intricate detail created by scratching of the photo print surface and from the selective application of paint, collectively alluding to the menacing depth of painful memories.
Alex Henning鈥檚 paintings explore evolution and its impact on the environment through the use of vibrant color and symbolic imagery.
Ardith Wood鈥檚 surreal, dreamlike photo animation alludes to life鈥檚 uncertainties and possibilities, by taking the viewer down complicated pathways on a sometimes-bumpy journey.
Sarah Fitzgerald鈥檚 abstract images taken in Galilee, R.I. are jewel-like and reveal a different side to an often photographed area.
Katie Picard鈥檚 paintings fuse sculptural elements to emphasize the gestural quality of her subjects. Her paintings consist of layered canvases, each a different size. 
鈥淭his semester鈥檚 journey too has been bumpy, but with satisfying end results. As an artist, I know that if a project doesn鈥檛 change from what you initially proposed, neither the artist nor the work have grown. The work of these eight young artists has definitely grown,鈥� said Annu Palakunnathu Matthew, coordinator of the exhibition.
