Circling Round Featured Artist: Connor Redwine

Connor Redwine has been selected as a featured artist in the Miami University Art Museum 2020 Student response Exhibition! Redwine is a sophomore games and simulation major with a computer science minor. He is from Perrysburg, Ohio. At Miami, Redwine is involved in Miami Game Design Club, League of Geeks and Miami University Varsity Esports. He chose to attend Miami because it had the best game development program in Ohio, which will help him pursue his dream career as a game developer. He likes to play board games and video games with friends in his free time. 

Redwine’s featured artwork, Infinite Sides, Infinite Points, was inspired by “the idea that circles have an infinite number of sides and angles, and I thought it would be interesting to illustrate it,” said Redwine.

This year’s SRE topic was Circling ‘Round, where students thought about what a circle meant to them and how they might interpret it in art. Nearly 100 submissions were received. 32 works by 58 students were chosen to be featured in the spring 2020 exhibition. As a juried exhibition, all works were selected through a formal process by a committee.

The exhibition will open Tuesday, January 28 and will remain through alumni weekend, closing on June 13. Voting will be open until Apr. 11, 2020. There will be an artist celebration and award ceremony held on April 14, 2020 at 6 PM where three works will be awarded prizes totaling over $800. The awards are sponsored by the Art Museum Membership Association. 

Come see Connor Redwine’s artwork along with the rest of the student response exhibition, Circling ‘Round, at the Miami University Art Museum!
