It involved the process of thinking as how you sort through design problems or what a piece will look like. However, the way people see it is probably different than what I had originally imagined. Meyers is one of 19 Iowa State artists who is competing in the Iowa College Salon XX, a statewide juried competition that showcases work by student artists who are in four year art programs in Iowa colleges. The process of submitting work is fairly simple, Stacy Brothers, University Museums administrative assistant, said.
Students send in slides of their work to be judged by a juror.
I have competed in the past and it's fun and always interesting to talk to other artists, meet other people and explore other opportunities. Art by young people is very contemporary and now. In conjunction with the Iowa College Salon XX, the University Museums is also hosting the Iowa College Salon 20th Anniversary. Operating separately from this year's Salon, the anniversary Salon will feature recent work from past Salon winners. Many were hard to find and we relied heavily on the Internet.
