THE OLYMPIA PROJECT is pleased to present Assemblage, a virtual group exhibition of works by current MFA students in their final year. Aware that most graduating students have had their thesis shows affected by the pandemic, we put out an open call across the country to individuals whose final presentations have been postponed or canceled. We were impressed and excited by the submissions, and from this group selected the works we found to be the most aesthetically complex, conceptually rigorous, and especially poignant in this time. We are delighted to present this selection of exceptional artists and their works.
