'Subtle Hysteria' and 'ID' MFA Thesis shows

Yes I know it has been a while but I now have something new and exciting to post. My two good friends Bess Bieluczyk and Tori Purcell had there MFA Thesis shows tonight at Alexander Hall here in Savannah, Ga. Both have worked very hard and I am very excited to see the end products of all their hard work.

Bess's show, 'Subtle Hysteria' is a visual representation of her fictional domestic character’s quite outlet of rage and frustration. Dealing with the idea of a woman’s place in the home, these images were 20x24 C prints in white frames and looked great.




Tori's show, 'ID' makes the viewer question the categories that are used to classify people based on race, gender, body type and sexual orientation. The show was some what politically charged and also brought in to question appropriation as art. There were interactive pieces such as 'peepers' an various audio stations. This is a shot of a very large instillation of individual images making up the grid on the back of a panty hoes box. each image is wrapped in various types of panty hoes.

Both shows looked great and I am very excited for my friends to have there shows up and looking awesome. Congrats ladies.
