The 2024 JSU Senior Show

The 2024 JSU senior show will be a dynamic exhibition focused on exploring the emotional and storytelling potential of color in art. We invite artists to submit pieces that showcase their individual and personal connection to color. Participants are encouraged to feature a specific key color to narrate a story or express an emotion, with the possibility of choosing any color from the entire spectrum, including black and white. Artists are asked to submit works featuring several colors that hold special significance for consideration. This exhibition offers artists a valuable platform to display your current professional development and body of work.
