2022 University of Toronto Shelley Peterson Student Art Exhibition

The University of Toronto Shelley Peterson Student Art Exhibition is an annual exhibition celebrating the diverse artistic excellence of undergraduate students enrolled in visual studies programs across the University of Toronto’s three campuses. The exhibition offers a meeting place for students to exchange ideas through their diverse artistic practice.

The sixteen emerging artists reveal themes that resonate with undergraduate student artists across geographical and cultural lines: memory, place, community. The exhibition invites an understanding of collective responses to place, time, and change in the present.

Selected artworks will be part of a digital showcase in the form of a curated brochure published on the Art Museum website. Participants in the digital showcase are eligible for three awards adjudicated by Emily Fitzpatrick, Artistic Director at Trinity Square Video.

The 2022 Shelley Peterson Student Art Exhibition is curated by Moshi Li, Loren Wang, and Natalie Scola as part of their Master of Museum Studies Exhibition Project at the Faculty of Information, University of Toronto. Their project mentor is Dr Liora Belford.
