EXHIBITIONS AND ART BOOK FAIRS
Scroll(s)Boston University,
School of Visual Arts2025
The theme of the 2025 Boston University Graphic Design Thesis Exhibition, “Scroll(s),” is meant to evoke both the parchment scrolls of antiquity and the ubiquitous act of scrolling on a digital device. The time spent in the MFA program can be understood as an ever-evolving scroll—one that unspools through a continuous stream of prompts and responses. Like the motion of a scroll, learning in this space is fluid, recursive, and full of momentum. In the exhibition, 20 student thesis projects are displayed longitudinally on long scrolls of paper fastened individually to tables that crosshatch and intersect with one another.
