SUMMARY:Dream Sequence
DESCRIPTION:Carnegie Mellon University School of Art 1st and 2nd Year MFA Exhibition\nFor the third consecutive year\, the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust and Carnegie Mellon University are pleased to present an exhibition featuring the work of first- and second-year MFA students from Carnegie Mellon’s School of Art. This exhibition offers a unique opportunity to engage with the next generation of influential artists as they expand their creative practices within Pittsburgh’s vibrant cultural landscape. \nEvoking the associative and often unpredictable logic of dreams\, Dream Sequence brings together eleven artists from Carnegie Mellon University’s Master of Fine Arts program. This collection of new works move through memory\, orientation\, and play\, tracing how images\, materials\, and technologies carry stories across time. Informed by the artists’ varied studio practices\, which span artificial intelligence\, photography\, filmic and virtual space\, and tactile media\, these works form a loose constellation of questions that don’t settle into fixed answers. They reach toward myth and speculative worlds\, attend to touch and trace\, and move through personal and familial histories. \n  \n\n    \n        \n            \n                Sarah Al-Sarraj (MFA ‘28)\n                Anne Chen (MFA ‘27)\n                Amber N.
