Who Am I? Who I Am: The BFA Thesis Exhibition opens Friday, May 2, and continues through May 9 in the Arts Center Gallery at Nazareth University. The exhibition showcases the work of three artists in various media, including painting, printmaking, and digital art.

Allentown, Pennsylvania, transgender artist Jude Landry uses his lithography to prove to his younger self that her dreams live on in him and, regardless of what dad used to say about her, through him, she is capable of anything she wishes to accomplish.

Rochester native Christena Georgiadis's work combines figures with elements from the natural world to explore the complexities around our perceptions of body image.

Fairport native Brenna Lancto examines the journey of self-discovery and strong emotions through invented mythological beasts.
