Boston University Graduate Thesis Exhibition

Form Follows Function:
A Design of An Assyrian Identity

April 14–30, 2006

Boston University’s College of Fine Arts is hosting the 2006 Graduate MFA Exhibitions. Sharokin Betgevargiz, a MFA candidate at the School of Visual Arts, will showcase her thesis designs at the Graphic Design Exhibition.

Using modern Assyrian letterforms and ancient Assyrian patterns, she weaves a variegated visual repetition and multilayered connection of a fragile but resilient identity that spans from Ancient Mesopotamia to current day Iraq and the forced Arabization and Kurdification of Assyrians in the region.
