Prof. Katherine Behar

Hello! I’m Professor Behar. I’m the founding Director and Curator of the New Media Artspace and I run Baruch’s New Media Arts Undergraduate Program. A favorite part of my role is collaborating with the Docent Team on every New Media Artspace exhibition, including student shows as well as shows by visiting artists. A course I love to teach is the NMA Capstone where I get to work with students to create their own exhibitions at the New Media Artspace. In my own creative work as an interdisciplinary artist and critical theorist of new media, I use feminism and materialism to explore digital culture. Currently, I’m working on interactive robotic installations, and I also work with sculpture, video, live performance, and more. You can see my art online at www.katherinebehar.com.

Maya Hilbert

Hello! I'm Maya, the Gallery Manager at the New Media Artspace. I'm a Baruch CIS and NMA alum who has been with the docent team since 2018. I'm familiar with most of the tools you'll encounter in the NMA program and am happy to help out with anything web or graphics related! Outside the gallery, you'll find me dabbling in various arts and crafts (needlefelting at the moment), freelancing in web development and design, and doting on dogs.

Shaima Rini

Hi! My name is Shaima and I'm a senior majoring in Digital Communications with a minor in Film. I always love drawing, writing, and storytelling. Coming to Baruch and finding out about the New Media Arts program allowed me to expand on my current skills and discover new ones as well. My favorite software to use are Premiere Pro and After Effects. Learning more about these programs will not only help my future career but inspire me to create personal projects as well. Being a Docent and a student taking New Media Arts classes also helps me gain a community of other creatives and I hope to learn and grow more as an artist!

Delilah Medina

Hello. My name is Delilah, and I am a senior majoring in Graphic Communication and minoring in New Media Arts. Since finding the NMA program I have found a place where my creativity can flow without a care in the world. I have learned so much in my time here, and I wish to share this comfort and openness to everyone, just as those in New Media Arts have done for me.
