Growth and Grace
Goldwyn Vinella and Marit Kershaw

Feb 18 - 22, 2025

Gallery 2A

undergraduate exhibitors

"Growth and Grace" features expressive figurative ceramic sculptures that delve into the messy, beautiful process of growth, acceptance and learning to love ourselves. Each piece captures the emotional weight of confronting insecurities and the scars, both physical and emotional, that shape us. Both inspired by their personal experiences, the artists invite the viewers to reflect on their own journeys. Through raw textures and human forms, the sculptures tell stories of resilience and forgiveness, creating a space to celebrate the ever-evolving nature of being human.
