The works of four students and recent graduates from the College of Visual Arts and Design were selected for juried exhibitions at the Society of North American Goldsmiths annual conference in Seattle.

Metalsmithing and jewelry senior Alan Johnson and master's student Robin Gordon ('10) exhibited works in the Juried Student Exhibition called State of Flux. They were among the 40 students selected to represent 31 universities from across North America. Their works were chosen from 1,170 pieces submitted by 284 students.

Loring Taoka ('11 M.F.A.) and Parker Brown ('05, '10 M.F.A.) were featured in the conference's live, juried student slide show video Fluxuation. Their works were chosen from more than 1,000 images submitted by 285 people from 50 colleges and universities around the world.

The video was shown at the conference and is online.
