Best in Show and Best in 3D Design: "Thinking Wig" by Hunter Orland

The annual University of Guam Undergraduate Exhibition is now on display in a virtual exhibit by Isla Center for the Arts. This year, the virtual exhibition includes 108 two-dimensional and three-dimensional works created by 17 fine arts students.

Fine arts faculty selected these students to receive the following best in show awards:

  • Best-in-Show for Environmental Art Works and Best in 3D Design: Hunter Orland
  • Best in Ceramics: Sydney Prudente
  • Best in Charcoal: Chie Collard
  • Best in Digital Art: Anthony Gallego
  • Best in Pencil: Stephanie Verroya
  • Best in Ink: Yenni Liao
  • Best in Painting: Sarah Johnson
  • Best in Printmaking: Akihisa Matsunaga
  • Best in Sculpture: Madison Orland
  • Best in Watercolor: Tonya McDaniel
  • Honorable Mention in Watercolor: Roybert Bautista

Exhibit viewers will get to know these students through their artwork, artists’ statements, as well as the audio and video files throughout the website. Students explain why they chose fine arts as a major and describe their experience as a student during the pandemic, and some of the Best-in-Show artists share details about their creative process. 

The pandemic pushed the Isla Center to feature virtual exhibitions in place of the displays in the gallery. This is the Isla Center's fourth virtual exhibition. The Gallery Management and Exhibition Design class put together the website with Alecsandrew Gan, Margaret Espino, and Sydney Prudente uploading, editing, and organizing sections of the exhibition.

This exhibition will be online until June 30, 2021.
