BFA Curatorial Studies
Shannon Ferrari is an artist and curator from Lancaster, PA. A graduate of Moore College of Art & Design, Ferrari uses both their artistic practice and their curatorial practice to explore their relationship with "self."
Their senior thesis project, "427: Communicating with the Inner Child," examines "self" to uncover and understand emotions of the inner child, such as anger and fear, that are currently surfacing because of the uncertainty of the post-graduate future. By using art and writing as therapy, the project aims to create a healthy relationship between the child self and the adult self to confidently navigate the future without doubt and fear.
