For Joely Ramo ’25 (Illustration BFA), Window into Worlds is both a title and a philosophy. Their ArtWalk collection features 26 mixed-media collages exploring interconnectivity and the duality of home, shaped by their practice as both a kabbalist and a Buddhist. Reflecting on their four years at MICA, Joely describes the experience as transformative, filled with lifelong friendships, creative experimentation, and deep connections with faculty and peers. “I did everything, experienced everything, was part of everything,” they says. The city itself has influenced her art in unexpected ways, reminding them that with an open heart, true connection is always possible.
