Annual Student Exhibition

Cressman Center for Visual Arts
Reception: Friday Dec. 2 | 5-8 PM

The Hite Institute of Art + Design is pleased to present this year’s Annual Student Exhibition. Featuring 15 students currently pursuing a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree at the Hite, the exhibition serves to highlight the Hite’s disciplinary range from painting to printmaking, photography to glass, sculpture and ceramics. Participating students were selected by their professors for their outstanding work and creativity to represent each studio area and highlight the conceptual and stylistic diversity of our talented students.

Visually this year’s selection ranges from intricate line drawings, high-contrast photographs and fluid paintings, along with soft sculptures and vibrant fiber creations, with themes that explore fantasy, nostalgia, identity, and personal struggle. For audiences, the exhibition offers a rich aesthetic experience that is complemented by each student’s individual thematic research.

We are also excited to share that this year, in addition to our BFA students, we will be joined by a small  group of students from the UofL Department of Theatre Arts who have spent the Fall semester designing and creating costumes which will be displayed alongside our student’s work.

The Annual Student Exhibition will be on view at the Cressman Center for Visual Arts from Friday December 2-through Friday January 6, 2023. A reception will be held on Friday Dec. 2 from 5-8 PM. This event is free and open to the public!
