Pictured left to right: Karise Baron and Deja Huggins

Artists Karise Baron and Deja Huggins are featured in the current exhibition “Angelic Ingenuityâ€� in the Seby Jones Gallery. Both artists are proud alumna of Saint Augustine’s University’s Visual Art Program. Karise, a 2020 graduate, and Deja, a 2021 graduate, completed their studies during the COVID-19 pandemic, so their Senior Exhibitions were virtual. When asked how it felt to exhibit in the gallery finally, Karise responded, “I think the delay was meant to be. I was sad when I could not bring family and friends together for a Senior Exhibition. However, I’ve developed more confidence as an artist over the past three years. I’m glad to have this opportunity to share my creativity with Âé¶¹ÊÓ´«Ã½»­Ó³Av.â€� Deja Huggins laughed as she explained, “There is a world of difference between creating virtual and gallery exhibitions. Installing an exhibition is nerve-racking but also very exciting and so, so worth it.â€� We welcome these two artistic talents back to the Saint Augustine’s University campus. The Âé¶¹ÊÓ´«Ã½»­Ó³Av Art Department will exhibit this art show from Wednesday, March 1, through Saturday, March 25, 2023.
