Annual CMU Student Show Call For Entry
About the Exhibition

The Colorado Mesa University Annual Juried Student Exhibition gives CMU students the opportunity to exhibit their work, some for the first time, and gives viewers a glimpse at the artwork produced by the next generation of fine artists.

The exhibition features a wide array of mediums such as ceramics, drawing, painting, sculpture, graphic design, film, photography, animation and mixed media. Students are guided by a dedicated group of faculty and staff as they gain an education in the Art & Design program focusing on techniques, critical thinking, and experimentation through art.

About the juror Paul Tholl:

My work is functional and intimate. I make pottery that celebrates the ritualistic daily routines that our lives revolve around, from our morning coffee to dinner and drinks with our closest people. The forms that I create are influenced by industrial and man-made objects from the mid-20th century and the surfaces are influenced by the inevitable decomposition that time and nature have imposed on them. This weathering and wearing down brings these objects to life, tells their story of time passed by and celebrates the natural world that will slowly take them back.

Submit to the exhibition now through February 11, 2022.
