welcome to the subconscious

SUBCONSCIOUS

show statement As our mind lies dormant, the line between the real and the surreal becomes lucid. Here our sub- conscious is awakened. This show aims to generate a space where artists have the ability and freedom to explore their dreams, memories, fears, and unspoken thoughts. This juried exhibition features nineteen student artists who have accessed these thoughts and have turned them into tangible works of art. These thoughts and ideas have expressed themselves as a functioning mess. Our minds are constantly flooded with images, ideas and feelings that are all at once chaotic, yet purposeful. The show is a product of these fleeting dormant forms that lie beneath the surface of our consciousness. Viewers will be challenged with engaging content that may evoke feelings of unrest and awe. How might theses feelings engage our own minds? How might diving into the mind of another shape our identities? Each work was intentionally chosen for their interconnectedness with each other and their attempt to delve into these ideas. Welcome to the subconscious.

biola art department

Located in La Mirada, California–in the greater Los Angeles area–

the Biola Art Department is well positioned to represent a vital

Christian worldview within the critical dialogue of contemporary

visual art. It offers students a professional visual arts program and

space to grapple with issues concerning the intersection of faith

with art and culture, within a rigorous curriculum that reflects a

strong liberal arts emphasis. The Biola art program is accredited

by the National Association of Schools of Art and Design.

The Bachelor of Fine Arts (B.F.A.) degree in Art is the professional

undergraduate degree that is highly desired by serious students

intent on pursuing careers or advanced degrees in the visual arts.

The program is designed to give art students flexibility to choose

from one of five emphases: design, painting, photography,

sculpture, or interdisciplinary.
