Synopsis:

Caught between what was and what's next

Shabbir Hussain Mustafa (Arts & Social Sciences '07 & '12), Benjamin Ang (Law '93) & Eunice Olsen (Arts & Social Sciences '01) found in the university environment a confluence of productive factors – uncertainty, liminality, juxtaposed with dynamism, creativity, and the potential for artistic growth and development. In this talk, these accomplished alumni of CFA share how their time in the university were formative and transformative, and how that continues to contribute to how they think and interact with the arts & the community.
