The 2024 Graphic Design Senior capstone exhibition, LANGUAGE LAYERS, explores language, its layers, and its complexities. The exhibition examines intersections where perception, perspective, and power converge, revealing critical layers that inform, disinform, empower and/or disempower.
LANGUAGE LAYERS presents seventeen transmedia projects that use communication design to share compelling stories. It serves as an invitation to recognize the intricate web of affordances within language and its capacity to impact society by shaping and reshaping narratives.
The Senior Graphic Design Capstone Exhibition is a culmination of each student-designer's development within the program, creating a platform to present their evolution, practice and interests.
