"no wear special" 2023 MFA Thesis Exhibition & "Activating Art & Science"
2023-05-19 17:00 - 19:00 | Lord Hall, 101 Munson Rd, Orono, 04473, United States
The Intermedia Programs are excited to announce the opening of the 2023 MFA Thesis Exhibition, “no wear special.”
This is the annual exhibition for students earning their Master of Fine Arts degree, and this year we have four graduates: Lia Davido, Walter Greenleaf, Thomas Griffith and Adam Kuykendall. The opening reception for the exhibition will be held Friday, May 19 from 5-7pm in Lord Hall Gallery and the community is invited to attend this celebration.

The Intermedia program is home to interdisciplinary students working in a wide variety of media, and this group is no exception; these students’ research and creative production examines the world of virtual space and identity, non-linear narrative, our relationship with end-of-life, and notions of gift economy/recycle and exchange.

In addition to the thesis work in the large gallery, the small gallery will be the site for another aspect of Intermedia focus; Activating Art & Science, collaborative works in conjunction with the School of Forest Resources, and the Process Development Center’s nanocellulose research. We are excited to share these projects as Intermedia is committed to practice-based research, and art going beyond the studio and into the world.

The exhibitions open Friday, May 10 and run through June 30. Lord gallery is free, accessible and open weekdays from 9am-4pm.
