MFA Thesis Exhibition: Revisit

Revisit - MFA Thesis Exhibition by Elizabeth Unterman

Reception: Thursday May 3, 5-7pm. The reception is open and free to all.

Revisit is a project that focuses on the re-photography of selected sites originally visited by the Farm Security Administration photographers of the 1930's and 1940's.

This project is not just an exploration of the passage of time and the identification of a changing social and economic climate, but it is also my way of taking possession of these sites and claiming them as my own. As the photographers who worked for the FSA took on the job of visually representing our country, I have taken on the job of unionizing their vision with mine.
