Professor Laura Mongiovi recently returned from a Fall 2019 sabbatical, taught during a pandemic and completed an exhibition project in collaboration with the Flagler College Archives.
This is the third time for the Archives collaboration and grew out of Archivist Jolene DuBray’s desire to host student exhibition opportunities for student work on the first floor of Proctor Library. Each time the pair works together, they seek new formats for student engagement outside of the art department in addition to the actual showing of the student artwork. For the most recent exhibit, “The Book of Tea” they invited Assistant Professor Nicholas Miller to speak on tea history and Visiting Lecturer Lauren Tivey s students to contribute Haiku poems. The goal for the partnered shows is always to offer a broad history and interpretation of the subject matter selected for exhibition.
