Azucena Trejo Williams Art Exhibit at CU

By Drew Tucker

CAMPBELLSVILLE, Ky. - Campbellsville University's Department of Art will host "unrequited," a solo exhibition by Azucena Trejo Williams October 27-November 14, 2014, at the Pence- Chowning Art Gallery located at 205 University Drive, Campbellsville, KY

An exhibition reception will be Monday, November 3, 2014 from 4pmCT until 5:30pmCT with an artist talk at 4:30pmCT at the Susan Kirkland Tesseneer Art Studio at 201 University Drive, Campbellsville. The public is invited to both the reception, talk and exhibit free of charge.




Trejo Williams' installation showcases three works that explore the essence of communication in sound, body language and technology.

"Secrets" and "You can't stop the future, You can't rewind the past...- Steven" uses the idea of secrets as a vehicle to reveal the quintessence of non-verbal communication while "Longing" examines the role in which a generated system can extract the emotion derived from traditional photo-taking and showcase the process involved in creating a photographic melody from a still image.

Trejo Williams is the artist-in-residence at Campbellsville University and serves as the vice chair for the academic committee on the Patrons of the Visual Arts Board.

She is a graduate student at Maryland Institute College of Art working on an MFA in studio art. She received her bachelor of arts in photojournalism from the University of North Texas in 2003.

She was a photographer at the San Angelo (Texas) Standard-Times and Fort Wayne (Indiana) News- Sentinel, and was photo editor for the Killeen (Texas) Daily Herald newspapers including Fort Hood (Texas) News-Sentinel and Copperas Cove (Texas) Herald.

She was a contributing editor to winning Newspaper of the Year by the Texas Association of Managing Editors (TXAPME) and received honorable mention in informative graphics design from TXAPME in 2006. She also worked at the Dallas Museum of Art as a docent, in the dducation department and visitors' services. Her work has been published in newspapers from 1997 to 2006.

Trejo Williams did her post baccalaureate studies in art and art education at Campbellsville University from 2011 until 2013. She received the Drawing Award for "Momento Mori" in the Student Juried Show at Campbellsville University in 2012 and four awards in 2013 including Best of Show for her watercolor titled "Kasota" that is now part of Campbellsville University's permanent collection.

Her watercolors have been shown at the Campbellsville University Russ Mobley Theater, Center Square Foundation's Art Festival in Lebanon, Ky., and at the Pence-Chowning Gallery art exhibition, "Legacy: Henrietta Scott" in 2012.
