2020 Digital Public Art Exhibition
The Spring 2020 Public Art Crew faced unprecedented challenges this semester, having to navigate ways to create meaningful public art amidst a global pandemic and times of great change and reckoning for the Black liberation movement. Perhaps more than ever before, they found their voices in their artmaking practices, and in the creation of the following series. Scroll through the following images to see their pieces and read their Artist Statements to learn more about their work. While the pieces exist in the digital realm right now, we hope to display them in physical spaces as well during Summer 2020.

His involvement in his community has allowed him to produce work across different genres, a practice he considers interdisciplinary.
"With this pandemic/quarantine relevant work, I’ve been in search of the best way to interpret current events while including pieces of myself through my perspective of the world we live in. I don’t limit myself to one medium, style or concept. Although my work is diverse this approach allows me to express different ideas in an effective way. Using my tablet I created drawings of self portraits based on the feelings and activities I’ve done since the world changed fourth months ago."
Salma Boukouj
Salma Boukouj is a 15 year old artist who uses a wide array of mediums, including paint, watercolor, and pencil. She is influenced by artists like Takashi Murakami and Shepard Fairey and uses art as an outlet to be creative and make a statement. Her process is self explanatory and isn’t overly complicated, although she did watch Avatar: The Last Airbender as she was creating this piece.
It was inspired by recent events like the protests that have brought light to the constant injustice Black people in America face. It also takes inspiration from posters she has seen at the protests and Coronavirus overall, hence the face mask.
Pandemic x2 stems from how racism is a dangerous pandemic that we’re facing along with the Coronavirus.
