Student Select '22 is an exhibition featuring artwork created by SUNY Cortland students.

The Dowd Gallery presents a fully accessible showcase of student art produced from across disciplines and majors after a couple of previous renditions affected by the global pandemic.

Elliott is the past Dowd Gallery's featured artist who exhibited his solo show in the fall of 2021. He is an Associate Professor from the Design and Environmental Analysis Department, College of Human Ecology, Cornell University in Ithaca, NY, and came to select artwork for the exhibition on Wednesday, April 20.
