Join us in celebrating the Spring 2026 Master of Fine Arts Thesis Exhibition: Round 2 on Friday, April 17th from 4-6pm!
Leading up to the reception, we will be sharing each of the artists in the show. Today’s artist is Brionna Garcia.
About their work Brionna says, “”Biomies” offers a gesture of care toward endangered animal beings, imagining multispecies kinship through decolonial, ecological frameworks. Using sci-fi worldbuilding alongside drawing & painting, the work envisions animal-human hybrids transgressing the apocalypse toward a future of shared survival.”
Be sure to stop by to see Brionna’s work in person and enjoy light refreshments and community this Friday!

Join us in celebrating the Spring 2026 Master of Fine Arts Thesis Exhibition: Round 2 on Friday, April 17th from 4-6pm!
Leading up to the reception, we will be sharing each of the artists in the show. Today’s artist is Ethan Cherry.
About their work Ethan says, “my thesis project “Here to Serve” explores painting as an act of devotion,
both private and performed. The phrase itself is double-edged: to serve can mean to
labor with humility and discipline; yet in queer vernacular, it also means to serve with
confidence, to present oneself with style and conviction—to “slay.””
Be sure to stop by to see Ethan’s work in person and enjoy light refreshments and community this Friday!

Join us in celebrating the Spring 2026 Master of Fine Arts Thesis Exhibition: Round 1 on Friday, March 27th from 4-6pm!
Leading up to the reception, we will be sharing each of the artists in the show. Today’s artist is Mahda Purmehdi.
About their work Mahda says, “A found 16mm print of a short narrative film set in the American Civil War, along with Super 8 home movies of the filmmaker’s family in Iran during the Iran-Iraq War in the early 1980s, are fused into a ghostly labyrinth. Made entirely on a JK Optical Printer, the film exhumes gestures, movements, conflicts, and forces in constant resurgence.”

Leading up to the reception, we will be sharing one of the artists in the show. Today’s artist is Dati Alsaedi.
About their work Dati says, “The thesis exhibition examines the complex relationship between multiplicity and consciousness through immersive sculptures that encourage viewers to reflect on identity and resilience. By merging philosophical inquiries with tactile art, the artist’s work addresses the difficulties of navigating multiple realities and fosters contemplation on how fragmented experiences shape our sense of self and our connection to the world.”.

Healing sounds + inspiring art = the perfect midday reset ✨
We hit pause in the middle of the day at the @CUArtMuseum for a restorative sound bath meditation led by @heal_with_ash . In partnership with the CALM Center, this experience brought the campus community together to reset and recharge—immersed in calming sounds and surrounded by art.
