ABIDE: Studio Art Senior Exhibition 2026

The SPU Art Department is pleased to present the second of our 2026 Senior Exhibitions in Studio Art entitled Abide. This culmination of study features individual projects by Avery Elliott, Rhiannon Kuns, Madison Porter & Racquel Wesley. This exhibition of art makes its home primarily in the medium of painting in oil and acrylic. In thematic exploration, we find a set of deeply introspective projects that wrestle with personal identity, theological inquiry, loss & grief, and the beauty of God’s creation. We hope you can take a moment to drop into the Art Center to experience these works and enjoy a moment of rest and reflection.

Please join us for an in person public reception with refreshments this Thursday May 7th, 5-7pm at SPAC Gallery in the Seattle Pacific Art Center. The exhibition will be on view from May 4-15.
