The Tufts University Art Galleries and the School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts University proudly present (T)HERE: Master of Fine Arts Thesis Exhibition, SMFA at Tufts, on view May 14–20. A public opening reception will take place on Friday, May 18 at 7:30pm throughout Tufts’ Medford/Somerville campus.
(T)HERE presents the work of 42 graduating master of fine arts students from SMFA at Tufts. Organized and titled by the graduating class, (T)HERE represents the collapse of “here” and “there” into one unified paradigm. The artists see our globalized world as both “here” and “there”; that problems of the past are the problems of today. It acknowledges that the contemporary moment synthesizes the mainstream and the periphery, theory and experience, history and future.
(T)HERE features the work of MFA students:
Jeehyon Ahn, Thomas Amundson, Ariel Baez, Kimberly Barnes , Samual Belisle, Edward Benfield (Teddy), Evan Blackwell, Eli Brown, Krystle Brown, Si Chen, Fredo Conde, Laurence Cuelenaere, Kathryn Gearon, Kassandra Grob, Katie Lee Mansfield, Hui Huang, James Kay (Jamie), Moon Hee Kim, Soojin Kim, Ching-Sheng Lai Yujeong Lee (Grace), Yanni Li (Niki), Ziwei Li (Zora), Wenyen Lo (Agatha), David MacDonald, Antigoni Papadopoulou-Theocharaki, Sofia Plater, Alyssa Pomfrey, Kristen Powell, Marnae Rathke, Cal Rice, Laidy Saenz, Jacob Schaub, Charles Shiner (Keegan), Brooke Stewart, Elly Stormer Vadseth, Sarah Tefft, Ardea Thurston-Shaine, Kenson Truong, Nohelia Vargas Bolivar, Yuting Weng, Mingxin Zhang (Cynthia)
