4-D Group Show “OVERSITE”: Summary

With only 2 weeks to complete new works after selecting a theme, 4-D graduate students delivered a successful and cohesive group show, representative of the diverse artistic disciplines housed within the 4-D subject area.

 

 

The exhibition, titled Oversight, explored themes of surveillance and “super vision” through works by 10 artists in video, installation, VR, and performance, among other media.

Is what we see, really what we think it is? What happens when one’s perception doesn’t match preconceived notions of what something “should” look like?
