ANALYSIEREN : A BIG THANK YOU

DigiINk design collective, Westwood college South Bay design club, would like to thank everyone that came out to support to our students and alumni by attending the opening of “ANALYSIEREN: when you wake up you’ll understand”, a cross disciplinary art exhibit exploring the space between wake and sleep, conscious and subconscious at Findings Art Center on June 5^th, 2014 from 6-9pm.

 “ANALYSIEREN” is a month long art exhibit featuring the work of DigiInk design collective members. On opening night, in conjunction with San Pedro’s First Thursdays, ART, DREAMS, AND DREAM INTERPRETATION were delivered to a crowd of family, friends, and community whom were all out to support and admire the work.  The public also got a chance to add to the exhibit by writing or drawing their own dream on the “What’s your dream?” chalkboard at the entrance to the gallery.

This event was a first for the club, bringing the work of the students out into a formal art gallery setting off campus. The show provided a venue for student work to be exhibited for an extended period of time, one month, and the chance for students to sell their work with the proceeds going toward their education. The public responded with positive encouragement for the student’s talent as well as a number of sales.

The show was student driven, with faculty and staff advisors, Students were given the opportunity to organize and implement the gallery art opening and extended show. Students from the club submitted work and prepared publicity posters, postcards, artist directory, space planning and all details related to the event/show.

We would also like to thank all the students that submitted work to the show. With a special thank you to Angelica Velazquez, the club president, for spearheading the entire event. And finally, CONGRATULATIONS to 9 year old Stella (see image attached)for winning the raffle which allowed her to choose from a selction of the exhibited work. She was overjoyed to get to take home one of Lillian Martinez’s art pieces. We hope everyone that attended enjoyed it as much as we did, and hope to see you at a future show soon.  (The Design Department has one coming up on June 28^th,2014  at Doffin Investments in Torrance, but more on that later)
