As summer begins, the voice of art grows. The 2026 SDA Graduation Design Works Exhibition opens in the early summer. This year’s exhibition is titled “Waiting for the Valley’s Echo.” The meaning of a valley lies not in what it once held, but in its enduring posture of listening. A valley is a vessel of time, a promise of space—like the earth waiting for seeds to push through the soil, like the night sky waiting for stars to light up one by one.
