SCSA Design Seniors had the opportunity to break up into groups and develop a concept for this year’s 2022 Senior Show for Art + Design to pitch to faculty and professors. My group’s design and strategy was chosen to be this year’s Senior Exhibition design.
As my group looked back on our class’s time and brainstormed together, one main theme that stood out was the parallel between a principle we were taught in our freshmen foundations class: convergent thinking and divergent thinking. Through this, we saw the way our stories as artists and designers have crossed—converging from various backgrounds to come to Anderson University’s School of the Arts, and diverging as we grew into our majors and now look to graduation and beyond. As we considered the department and how it’s influenced us, challenged us, and pointed us to the future with encouragement and excitement, we asked ourselves, “Where do we go from here?” Our answer was onward.
My team chose to appoint art directors for each of the main categories of work that we had to develop to divide up work between the rest of the senior designers. I was put in charge of website design for this year's senior exhibition site. I asked one other senior to help me with organizing information and inputting data onto the website after I developed each page.
