2026 Scripps College Senior Art Exhibition: Blink
2026-05-01 12:00 - 2026-05-16 17:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Ruth Chandler Williamson Gallery, 251 E. 11th St., Claremont, 91711
The 2026 Senior Art Exhibition, Blink, brings together eight artists working across a range of media to examine the subtle structures that shape daily life, including gender performance, ecological change, inherited culture, and digital overwhelm. The exhibition takes its title from the fleeting yet transformative nature of perception, highlighting the varied ways in which individuals navigate and perceive the world.
“In a blink, everything shifts. Perception is constantly in flux; it changes with attention, with time, with who is doing the looking,” Sabrina Feld ’26, Ally Samson ’26, and Fotini Mourelatos HMC ’26. “Together, these pieces invite audiences to slow down, look closely, and sit with the discomfort of things that refuse to stay still.”
Participating artists include senior art majors Abigail Adell, Ellie Attisani, Sabrina Feld, Emma Garman, Fotini Mourelatos, Lu Nimmo, Alessandra Samson, and Kaya Savelson.
