2022 MCAD Collegiate Fellowship
MCBA is pleased to announce Avery Beltrand as the recipient of the 2022 MCAD Collegiate Fellowship at Minnesota Center for Book Arts!
Avery recently graduated from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design with her BFA focused in Print Paper Book. For her two-month fellowship at MCBA, she will be working on a multi-layer print using relief carving and letterpress type, representing surreal vivariums that are influenced and informed by Victorian illustrations. Her work investigates how humans relate to the natural world through association and information by viewing the vivarium as a representation of a space that contains and controls the natural world—directly reflective of human desires.
