Valdosta State University’s graduating class of 2021 presents their virtual art show, \u201cLiving in Color\u201d<\/em> , opening Sunday, April 18th. Through this site, viewers can explore the works of over twenty unique artists using a multitude of mediums. Due to the continued global pandemic of COVID-19, this year\u2019s senior show will be available online at www.vsugallery.org<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the semester comes to a close, 20 art students graduating from VSU have worked together to create the digital gallery show \u201cLiving in Color<\/em>\u201d. This semester we will be presenting a wide variety of work including paintings, drawings, sculptures, photography, graphic design, printmaking, book art, ceramics, jewelry, and metalworking. This vast array of artistic mediums and subject matter highlights the unique differences in each student and their art. From the precise and meticulous drawing, to free-flowing watercolors, to raw and vibrant prints; viewers can experience many distinct types of art, sure to find art that speaks to them.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The work shown in \u201cLiving in Color<\/em>\u201d explores the use of art as communication. This communication can lie within the self as a deeper personal exploration or shine through with the ability to share our unique experiences in life. Each one of us sees the world through such diverse perspectives. This is featured in work that expresses the versatility of the body, the struggles of living as a person of color in America, and the duality of nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our title \u201cLiving in Color<\/em>\u201d represents each one of us as individuals and unique artists, and although these colors are different, we still can find the allure in them. Each of us are at various points in our lives, and we each have unique experiences, that makes us beautiful in our own way. Artists have an exceptional way of seeing the world, tending to see it as it should be instead of how it is. In a time where the world is bleak and gray, as artists,<\/strong> we aim to brighten the world by choosing living in color. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We invite all to return to the virtual gallery on April 26 to view each student-artist\u2019s personal video presentation and learn more about their work, as well as their ideas and processes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
