‘No More Insecurity’ features works by 14 senior students, including photography, painting, illustration, sculpture, installation, design, and video. Students have explored a range of personal and universal themes, from family life to the experience of war. On display will be a children’s book, a graphic novel, mixed-media paintings, and more. This exhibition marks the end of these young creatives’ university life, and the beginning of their professional careers: the end of ‘insecurity,’ and their entrance ‘into’ security as young professionals. Participating students: Sara Al Haddad, Amina Al-Tamimi, Farah Alizade, Aya Atoui, Nasim Bahraini, Ahmed Bouholaigah, Nargis Dhirani, Manal Elias, Danya Hassan, Hengameh Najarbashy, Michelle Peric, Hala Saleh, Sami Sasso, Mohammad Zelli. Professors Julia Townsend and Roberto Lopardo have curated the exhibition.
