The Students’ Senior Theses

November 1, 2024 - February 10, 2025

UD DART 2024

This annual exhibition presents the culminating student work of a future generation in illustration, animation, digital painting, motion graphics, and digital artwork. Each of the featured students—Jakhari Anderson, Jenna Benzing, Alyssa Classen, Urias Gbarjolo, Dillon Leffler, Carlos Sanchez, Elizabeth Thill, and Kimonte Thomas—chose an independent and specific theme for their collection of artworks, which allowed them to fully express their individual abilities and interests.

“We are honored and privileged in calling our students family,” said Sheila Sabers, head of the Department of Digital Art and Design and assistant professor of digital art and design. “We love the journey of witnessing the development of their creativity and contribution to society through their unique talents and perspectives—some through their four years at the University and some as they return after years away to finish their DART degree.”
