Means of Abundance
As viewers entered 100 Laurier, uOttawa's fourth year students of the BFA welcomed them to the lifecycle that was their graduation exhibition. Means of Abundance showcased, masses of media and material arranged in every possible space within the 100 Laurier building. Some artists tackled the riches of human experience and sense, while others provided reason to pick apart abused fortunes. Ultimately, they hoped to leave an abundance of inspiration behind as they seize the lot of opportunities that appear in front of them.
- Paraphrased from MOA catalog.
Means of Abundance took place from April 22nd and ended April 29th, 2024.
