The exhibition will feature the work of three third-year graduate students: Meredith Brickell, ceramics, Kristen Martincic, printmaking, and Esme Guenther, printmaking.
Guenther's show is titled "Hypnosis of the Road." She does prints that are mainly etchings and lithography.
"A great deal of my imagery has to do with maps and what they mean and represent to me," Guenther said. "I am originally from the Pacific Northwest, so that landscape plays into my imagery."
Brickell's show is titled "Trace." Her current body of work is an investigation of the ceramic vessel, both as an object for use and as a container of contemplative space. Her hand-built pieces allude to rural landscapes and architecture through three-dimensional form and drawings on the surface of the clay.

Martincic's exhibition is titled "Lay Bare." In it, she explores the duality of absence and presence within the context of domestic and private life. She uses constructed undergarments and clothes hangers as symbols to convey issues of vulnerability and privacy.
The remaining MFA Thesis Exhibitions are Sean Scott, Nick Spohrer, Josh Luther and Jamie Burmeister April 4-14, and Ken Stanley, Jennie Moore, Amanda Hext and Koi Neng Liew April 18-27.
