Jena Duncan has taken on the task of eating within a hundred miles of Boston for 60 days as a performance-based art piece. Her work exhibits the perks of local-eating but also the struggles and conflicts that it creates on oneself in today's society. She works with many different mediums to go along with this performance and her exhibition includes plants she is growing, photographs, a map of where her food has come from, a cook book, as well as videos posted on her blog chronicling her experience.
Sam Matsumoto has two different bodies of work on display at this exhibition. The photographs in the World of Rugby series investigates the strength and fragility of female rugby players.
The Self Myth series explores issues of identity and how we invest personal narrative into photographs.
Jen Morgan's documentary “Gone Phishing” is a film about the journey of a Phish fan. Living on the road, going from one concert to another regardless of the passage of time, Jen shows how this life can actually sustain Phish followers and how they always come back to do it again. This film represents her own quest for self-discovery and the next step on the path to pursue in life.
