Gina White, Juror
What a privilege it has been to serve as juror for this beautiful exhibition and in this amazing space! Thank you to the Herrig for the honor of jurying such a fine collection of artwork. The submissions for Herrig’s end of season exhibition, Create, were numerous and exemplary. While this makes for a wonderful show, it also results in a difficult jurying task. The submissions encompassed myriad artistic styles and a wide range of media. I applaud all the entrants and thank you for sharing your work. If your work was not included in the final selections, don’t be disheartened. We were constrained by space and overwhelmed with the caliber of work as well as the number of submissions. The creativity, talent, and depth of meaning reflected in the work meant that many talented artists’ work were not included in the exhibit. As there was no overarching theme for the artists to focus on other than to bring in their best creations, my selection process centered on gathering a compelling collection of diverse and varied work that forms a cohesive whole. Congratulations to you all!
When jurying for the awards, I focused on three areas:
- creativity/originality
- overall artistic quality, including design, artistic voice, statement, and impact
- artistic skill and technique
While each of these areas were represented by the artwork in the show, the following pieces demonstrated proficiency:
