Como “-Mento, elemento, acción, efecto” tituló la estudiante Milena Calle Burgos, de la Escuela de Artes Visuales, a la muestra que inaugura hoy, lunes el 2 de marzo, en el Centro de Arte, Cultura y Patrimonio, de la Facultad de Arquitectura y Urbanismo de la Universidad de Guayaquil, donde se mantendrá hasta el 16 de este mes. Es una de las exposiciones de titulación que se han venido presentando desde el pasado 28 de enero dentro y fuera de la Universidad de las Artes.

Kiersten Jungbluth Pienknagura, de Literatura, fue la primera estudiante en sustentar su proyecto de titulación en el presente periodo de defensas que lleva adelante la Secretaría Académica de la Universidad de las Artes. La hoy egresada se presentó ante el comité de tesis el pasado 10 de febrero y, acorde a lo programado, las sustentaciones que lleva a los alumnos de nuestras cinco escuelas de pregrado hacia la recta final de sus carreras se registrarán hasta el 6 de marzo próximo.

A la Universidad de las Artes llegó con las expectativas de muchos, pero con la seguridad de que, a través de las Artes Visuales, podría dar rienda suelta no solo al talento, la imaginación y creación, sino a todas las inquietudes con las que creció y que dieron impulso a una muestra individual que fue la antesala para su defensa de tesis. Damaris Vite tituló a su exposición “Estructuras Afectuales. Intertextualidad y disonancia en las vivencias afectivas”.
