Student Activities has weekly meeting with its Executive Board, Club Advisors, Senators and students.
Each year, the HCC Art Galleries presents a selection of work by arts faculty currently teaching at a four-year university in Florida. This exhibition introduces HCC students to potential mentors, departments and schools to consider for further study upon completion of their AA degree at HCC. This year, Gallery114@HCC Ybor City hosts multimedia artist Eszter Sziksz, DLA (Doctorate in Liberal Arts), a Visiting Professor at the Ringling College of Art and Design in Sarasota.
Eszter Sziksz: Let It Go includes videos, sculptures and prints that explore the shifting material states of each piece as it grows in time, decays and leaves a trace of memory. Sziksz prints family portraits using ephemeral materials like ice, sand, milk, MSG and ash that quickly wash away, speaking to her acceptance of change as a constant. Her work also addresses environmental impacts, touching on collective concerns about impending catastrophes and how the fragility of life can be both universal and deeply intimate. For Sziksz, the sentient impressions of her work may be more important than the survival of the work itself. She asks us to confront the fact that nothing lasts forever—not the exhibition, not the work, not us. Maybe the Earth endures.
Sziksz received a Doctorate in Liberal Arts from Pecsi Tudomany Egyetem, Pecs, Hungary in 2018 and her MFA in Studio Art from Memphis College of Art in 2010.
