Translations: Creative Research in the Media Arts
As a part of SLAM’s University Day, master of fine arts candidates in the School of Media Arts at Southern Illinois University will deliver Translations, a curated program of creative research presentations. Translations features diverse work, offering film, sound, performance, photographs, and drawn and print media, all contextualized by the artists themselves.
Through these research presentations, the artists will share their always-timely endeavors to convey lived experiences through artistic practice.
About the program
Translations was conceptualized and executed by the students in partial fulfillment of the course MCMA 559: Studio Art Practice & Critique, taught by Kevin Mercer, assistant professor of digital media arts & animation at Southern Illinois University. Participating artists include Jordan Bardgett, Diazha Berry, Skyler Foy, Kendra Keefer-McGee, Ashish Kumar, Drew McGinniss, Saba Raissian, Shruti Rao, and Drew Yepse.
Generous support provided by Art Bridges Foundation’s Access for All program.
