STARKVILLE, Miss.ā€”Six senior art majors specializing in graphic design at Mississippi State are showcasing their work in a Bachelor of Fine Arts thesis exhibition, available for viewing in-person or online.

Titled ā€œIn the Making,ā€ the gallery spotlights the seniorsā€™ completion of academic and studio work within MSUā€™s Department of Art, the stateā€™s largest undergraduate studio art program. The students under the instruction of Associate Professor of Graphic Design Suzanne Powney this semester are displaying their graphic creations at the Visual Arts Center Gallery through Nov. 21 from 1-6 p.m., but also are available due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Updates on the exhibition are posted onĀ .

Student exhibitor Breanna Rochelle of Nesbit explained that ā€œIn the Makingā€ refers to the process that comes with creating art, designing and the changes in life. This was instilled by Powney as she guided her students to achieve design goals and exhibit excellence in their work.

Rochelle said, ā€œTo me, ā€˜In the Makingā€™ refers to the fact that we are always growing and changing, and it encourages me to look forward to what comes next for myself. Iā€™m not finished yet.ā€

In addition to Rochelle, other student exhibitors include (by hometown):

CARTHAGEā€”Jeremiah Brooks

GREENVILLEā€”Darius Amos

IUKAā€”Malik Henley

MADISONā€”Mandy Schemmel

MEMPHIS, Tennesseeā€”Vick Jackson
