The Department of Visual Arts, part of Brock University’s Marilyn I. Walker School of Fine and Performing Arts, has a long tradition of presenting the work of graduating students mentored in its Honours studio program. Students accepted into this course develop a cohesive body of work that that will support their entry into graduate school MFA programs and professional practice as artists. The Department’s partnership with Rodman Hall Art Centre has made the Honours Studio an especially fruitful undertaking. The year-end exhibition at Rodman Hall is the capstone of students’ visual arts education at Brock and an opportunity to publicly present the results of their exploration and hard work. Such exhibits from the Department of Visual Arts are a key part of the School of Fine and Performing Arts’ mandate to connect the community with the breadth of talent and creativity at Brock University.
Presented in two chapters, this exhibition displays the work of selected graduating Brock University Visual Arts students. Occupying Rodman Hall’s third floor studios during the academic year, students in the Honours Studio course were mentored by gallery staff and professors Shawn Serfas and Donna Szőke, where they learned to develop a focused body of work from concept to public exhibition. Such exhibits from the Department of Visual Arts are a key part of the Marilyn I. Walker School of Fine and Performing Arts’ mandate to build connections between the community and the breadth of talent and creativity at Brock University.
