Circling 'Round ~ A Student Response Exhibition

About the Exhibition

In this sixth juried Student Response Exhibition (SRE), Miami University students were called upon to creatively respond to a select theme – the circle. Selecting Circling ‘Round as the main theme enabled students to think beyond the limitations of a physical form. Typically represented in two or three dimensions, a circle can also elicit a response in a metaphorical manner and be represented in theoretical and abstract explanations. What else can a circle represent? How can you interpret the form and function of a circle? Does it have different meanings based on historical, cultural, religious or scientific relevance?

As a juried exhibition, 32 works created by 27 students and one work created by 50 students were selected through a formal process by a committee. Three works in the exhibition were chosen for cash awards by votes cast by visitors to the exhibition via a kiosk in the gallery. Winners were announced at a special reception on April 14 during a public awards ceremony.
