Wubbena's 'Selective Memory' Wins Best of Show at Art on the River

Chris Wubbena, associate professor of art at Southeast, won Best of Show for his "Selective Memory" exhibit at the 2012-2013 Art on the River event in Dubuque, Iowa.

"Selective memory exists as a contemporary artifact and brief fragment of personal growth," Wubbena said. "The metaphoric use of geology is employed for investigation into the layers of sediment and sentiment that make up a personal life story of history, memory and meaning. Through the constructive process of metal fabrication and the subtractive process of acid etching, 'Selective Memory' unifies sculptural and pictorial languages into an autobiographical account of the past, present and future."
