For the Senior Exhibition, graduating Redeemer art students set their own questions, respond to their deep passions, and create a cohesive body of work for public display. This time of challenge, soul searching, and commitment leads, usually, to a fabulously attended event in the Redeemer Art Gallery.
This year, due to Covid-19 and the closure of campus, these 5 artists have taken their projects online. Using digital tools, they created an impression of how their projects would have taken form within the physical gallery.
The artists created their own pages, with their own images and words. While the content here is coursework for the Senior Exhibition class, the work reflects their vision, not necessarily the views of Redeemer University.
Explore their work, and the conceptual and sensual worlds they have created!

The world is waking up. And change is coming, whether you like it or not.”

In this series I pay tribute to my late dad, an exceptional role model to me. Pulling from various artistic influences, these oil paintings present a continuum between my dad’s lengthy ministry work in Europe and my own recent art studies in Italy, the country where he had spent the most significant amount of time working for Christian TV.
