This exhibition is the result of a collaborative partnership between the UCF Art Gallery at the University of Central Florida and the Rollins Museum of Art to celebrate and support emerging professional artists working in Florida. Juried by an external panel of three professionals from various areas of the art world, this year’s edition of the exhibition features seven artists with diverse practices. The selection includes a variety of media, themes, scales, and approaches, showing a wide breadth of perspectives and experiences. Works by the finalists will be shown at both venues, creating opportunities for engagement with two of the area’s major academic constituencies and their surrounding communities. This year’s finalists are Patricia L. Cooke, Samuel Aye-Gboyin, Tenee’ Hart, Jonathan Sánchez Noa, Fernando Ramos, Diego Alejandro Waisman, and Clio Yang.
