Sofia Sierra
A lighthearted exploration of humor, curated by BFA Alum Sofia Sierra

For this exhibition, the PAFA community - including students, staff, alumni, faculty, and friends - were invited to submit artworks that explore humor! This community-wide show celebrates the playful, the absurd, and the ridiculous.  Ranging from inside and outside jokes, ironic sculptures, and silly doodles, the featured works exude fun and deliver laughs.    

Join us for Exhibition Reception on Wednesday, December 11th from 4pm - 6pm.
