It's really fun. That's what I love about this school. Becca Piascik, BFA I almost see all of my work as performance art because the process is so important to me. Sometimes I see my piece and think “Yeah, this is a piece of visual art” but to me it’s more of a residue of the performance. Celia Glastris, BFA + BA/BS What connects my practice is an interest in craft and working with my hands, and learning through making. The hands have a brain too. Conor Ward, Combined Degree (BS/BFA) My focus is animation, actually. But I find that sculpture and performance really help me to inhabit and embody my characters a lot better. Liz Maelane, BFA I’m settling into papermaking where I’m using photography and I’m thinking as a bookmaker. Hannah Marshall, BFA The whole reason I'm at SMFA is because I didn't have to choose a major. I came in here being a sculptor and now I’m a print maker. I think I’m gonna leave something else as well. Khadine Caines, BFA It’s the perfect art environment to use various mediums and theorists and artists to feed back into your own practice. Mabel Albert, BFA It’s nice to have someone who cares about you and who cares about your work to guide you and help answer those questions that you can’t solve all by yourself. Rachel Olang, BFA SMFA IS DIFFERENT says everyone, everwhere Art is about connections. Being an artist is about making connections, to me. Liz Maelane, BFA Undergraduate Program Bachelor of Fine Arts SMFA challenges students to innovate across mediums and define their own practices. EXPLORE NOW
