Visit the David Owsley Museum of Art to view Reflecting Intersections, a pop-up show of prints and photographs that aim to spark conversations about student activism. Student interns and assistants met with student organizations to select works that examine social issues through multiple lenses and encourage visitors to think critically about what art reveals about American culture, experiences different than their own, and current politics. On Saturday, November 16, students will convene at 2pm for a lively discussion focused on the role of art in raising awareness and fostering empathy about police brutality, political violence, racial bias, and inequality.
Reflecting Intersections coincides with DOMA’s exhibition The Art of Elizabeth Catlett from the Collection of Samella Lewis, which inspired the museum interns and assistants to create this pop-up show that confronts beliefs about race, gender, economic power, and social justice.
This exhibition was conceived in collaboration with the following Ball State student organizations: Office of Inclusive Excellence, Collegiate 100, National Association of Black Journalists at Ball State, Black Creative Conscious, Multicultural Center, Men and Women of Color.
Student Organizers: Abby Brandenburg ‘25, Amelia Dorsey ‘26, Nate Durnell ‘27, Elizabeth Hahn ‘24, Milo Hardison ‘24, Brooke Hartman ‘25, Levi Jones ‘27, Kennedy Moore ‘25, Halle Pressler ‘25, Marcus Stach ‘24, Mya Whitis ‘24.
