Patrons view an installation during the Cross/Pollination exhibition Friday, Dec. 9, 2016, at Carbondale Community Arts. The exhibition is a project created by masters of fine art students from SIUs Art & Design and Media Art programs. Priscilla Pimentel, of Carbondale, said she came to the exhibition after reading about it online because she wanted to see work created by students. I like the collaborative effort, she said. There are some really complex ideas here. The show features various mediums including sculpture, photography, metalwork and performance art. Dimitar Velkov, a masters student in Mass Communication and Media Art who contributed to the show, said the purpose of creating the exhibition was to give students from different areas of study an opportunity to come together.
