Thesis Project is a new feature series created specifically for photographers currently enrolled in their final semester of graduate school. As the COVID-19 pandemic forces us to find alternatives to traditional exhibition spaces, this week-long spotlight on graduating MFA candidates seeks to provide a virtual platform for showcasing some of the most compelling thesis projects. It will also incorporate interviews with these new members of our photo community. As the art world shifts towards new approaches to disseminating content and creating community, we want to know how the next generation is navigating these uncharted territories- both during the current crisis and beyond. If you are graduating from a masters program this spring, we invite you to share your thesis project with us and weigh in on the conversation.
