MFA Exhibition 2021
Exhibition Dates: March 30-April 9, 2021
The Wonsook Kim School of Art requires each graduating MFA student to mount a solo exhibition at the tail end of the three-year terminal degree program. Through the support of a thesis committee of faculty mentors this exhibition signifies the successful completion of an MFA education as a studio artist. Students work diligently in their downtown Bloomington studios to grow their studio practice, and to develop their distinct voices as makers. While working towards their solo exhibitions, MFA students also write a supportive statement – a writing project that fits alongside the work in their solo exhibition. Spring 2021 MFA exhibitions were installed in the Center for Visual Arts 110.
