It’s an interesting title for the annual exhibition and thesis readings for Anderson University’s art and design students: “(id)entity.”
According to exhibit information, the word “identity” is thus split into two: “id,” the part of the personality dealing with basic drives, and “entity,” that which we are. When the two combine into art, they form an “identity.”
The show opened Saturday, April 10 in the Wilson Gallery of the Fine Arts Building [Campus Map and Directions].
Works by 11 art and design seniors will be on display until at least the first of May and possibly until graduation.
