Student-curated exhibition to explore ‘The Shape of Being’ at Washington Gallery
A student-curated exhibition titled 'The Shape of Being' opens Friday at Washington Gallery in Waco, Texas. Organized by Baylor University senior Aleah Burns, the show features work from five female Baylor student artists, each contributing three pieces plus a collaborative installation centered on hands. The exhibition focuses on figurative painting, exploring themes of identity, memory, human connection, and technology-mediated relationships. Featured works include Kate Swayze's 'Left Unsaid,' which uses layered materials like reused painting rags, and Burns' own 'Unstable Connection,' depicting fragmented figures embracing through screens.
