Cal Lutheran presents the artists’ reception of Transformations, a collection of artwork from the Visual Arts Department’s senior class of 2022. A transformation can be many things—a journey, a repurposing, a shift in perspective—it is something that begins in one place and ends up in another, often an unexpected one. We experience constant transformation in our lives, in a multitude of forms. This year’s graduating art majors seek to explore these diverse manifestations through their work
