Curators' Statemtent:

Written by Mark Youngsma

Western student artists were asked in their assignment to describe how their potential dream of becoming an artist could be achieved in their progression towards that stature.  The students where asked things such as: what their disciplines were, their process, their ideal imagery trajectory in the progression of their work, and what is required of them to reach their goals. 

The second part of this assignment was to make a visual interpretation that incorporated what they had written for themselves, at the beginning of the assignment, which is now being exhibited.

Western students in planning this exhibit are: Scott Anderson, Gerry Blakney, Katie Etzel, Shane Henning, Jessie Her, April Reimers, Amanda Rowe, Ariana Ninneman, Jennifer Sigl, Mark Youngsma.    

Special Thanks: the Art Department, CEVA, and Susie Nielson.
