IMDA Welcome Event

October 30, 2024 12PM–1:30PM

On October 30, 2024, from 12–1:30 pm, the Center for Art, Design and Visual Culture hosted an event to welcome the new Intermedia and Digital Arts (IMDA) Graduate Students. The event featured micro research talks by artists such as Mary Ryan Budnitz, a Baltimore-based animator who explores themes of body positivity through digital animation using the monstrous and fantasy, and Jaslyn Tabourne, a multimedia artist inspired by her faith to create narrative works. Filmmakers Brittney Barbour and María Sánchez shared insights into their video art, and Rokhsareh Alvandi presented aspects of her multidisciplinary practice influenced by her Iranian heritage. The talks were followed by a mixer, with refreshments provided.
