Close at a Distance.

At a Distance Gallery is an online gallery for students to exhibit their work in a new and unconventional way. This space was conceived and created by students in the Art Department of CSU East Bay in response to the Covid-19 crisis and the cancellation of Senior Exhibitions and University Art Gallery Exhibitions. Moving forward the gallery will exist as an opportunity to connect with the public outside of the physical constraint of a traditional gallery, while connecting with a wider audience beyond their local community.

The work being shown spans a wide array of media and disciplines, some in their raw and unfinished state. Students are given a chance to challenge themselves, to think outside of the norms of an exhibition and to broaden their creative practice.  Through these exhibitions we look to bring about fruitful conversations and facilitate growth within our local and expanded communities. 

We might not be able to enjoy art in a physical space at this time, but collectively we can create an experience that allows us to appreciate art distinctly and makes us realize that some things may also be enjoyed at a distance.
