Spring Cleaning

Spring Cleaning was created to represent the tendency of human nature to desire a fresh start when spring begins. This piece was created before the new year as a reminder that a clean slate does not have a timeline. Whether it’s the new year, the start of spring or a random day in July, you always have the ability to take a moment, refresh yourself, recenter your goals and continue down a different path. Student Arts Program official selection 2023. Located on the first floor, near room 125.

About the Artist

Julia Sharkowicz began her academic journey at CU Boulder in 2021 after completing most of middle and high school abroad at Singapore American school. Throughout the various moves her family made throughout her childhood, art has been a consistent factor that has given her the ability to express her emotions. Art has always been her way of connecting with other people and it is her hope that this piece resonates with the students and faculty at CU.
