ArtCenter Unveils Graduate Design Exhibition Exploring Creative Processes

ArtCenter College of Design will present “Reveal: Uncovering Layers of Creativity 2” from July 24 through January 30 at the Graduate Studies Gallery in the Mullin Transportation Design Center on the college’s South Campus.

The exhibition will showcase work from 13 graduate students representing diverse disciplines, including Industrial Design, Graphic Design, Media Design Practices, Art, Spatial Experience Design, Interaction Design, Brand Design & Strategy, and Furniture, Lighting, and Fixtures.

Visitors will encounter a multifaceted exploration of “unveiling” through various media, including mixed media installations, sketches, drafts, prototypes, photography, digital renderings, 3D models, process videos, and print materials.

The exhibition challenges viewers to look beyond surface-level presentations and discover the underlying narratives and techniques that inform student creations.

An opening reception will take place on Thursday, July 24, from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the Graduate Studies Gallery.

Cross-disciplinary micro-thesis presentations by exhibiting students will occur from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. in Room 230.

All events are free and open to the public.

Featured participants include:

• Industrial Design: Qinwen Feng
• Interaction Design: Andrea Chau, Michelle Chen
• Furniture, Lighting, and Fixtures: Lance Li

The exhibition’s visual identity was created by graduate Graphic Design student Umang Ahluwalia.
