I like to go to the exhibit of undergraduates because as unfolding artists, their work is fresh, at times spontaneous-inhibited , and unique; but also because I like to see what is the trend of thought they are in, what they see, and how they see it. I tend to be surprised. There are so much artwork to see! that the experience is kind of overwhelming.
Many work of arts are very good but there were few that caught my attention: Sierra Undine (http://sierraundine.blogspot.com) one painting on canvas addressing the temporal in all things; Vrinda Agrawal (vrindagrawal.com) from New Delhi with a BFA in creative writing whose work entitled "How to lose everything" talks about the "deterioration of ephemiral things such as emotions and state of being"; Brazilian born Amanda Coimbra McCaskey (amandacoimbramccaskey.com) interested in sociological themes through the use of photography; Jaeuk Song (songjaeuk.blogspot.com) a performance artist who presented a three person performance making us reflect on connectivity, life rhythms, and impact we have on each other.
In general, there is a feeling of reflection on the unknown, the ephemeral, the fragility of life... The show runs till April 6 at SAIC Sullivan Galleries- 33 S State St. 7th Fl.
