Sensory Overload: 2021 Loyola Fine Art Senior Exhibition

April - May 2021

Online Reception and Awards Ceremony, May 14, 5-6pm CT

 

On view from W. Sheridan Avenue and ONLINE through May 14, 2021

Sensory Overload is an online exhibition of the work of Loyola University Chicago’s most recent Fine Art graduates. With a variety of approaches to making across multiple disciplines, this exhibition represents the ambition, passion, and activism that make Loyolans stand out. The investigations and discoveries within Sensory Overload are often poignant and surprising and have become even more complex in these unprecedented times of protest and pandemic. Like the rest of the world, these students are asking the difficult question of what comes next — not just for themselves, but for the world that their work represents.
