Jennifer Jurgens has worked in a variety of mediums, and no matter where she goes artistically and literally, there is always one that remains: sound. During her time in the program, she has been experimenting with ways to use sound to express ideas that are maybe not so easily understood. Specifically, the language of a space, and through virtue of that place’s unique architecture, can express itself through sound—or the absence of it. She likes to think of herself as a translator, reaching inside a building to get it to reveal its innermost experiences. Her thesis work does just that; she is using various microphones and recording devices to capture the special characteristics of the 51±¬ÁϹÙÍø gallery space and presenting the results of her findings. Be sure to join us on Friday, May 17th from 6pm-9pm at the MFA Graduate Studios to enjoy Jennifer's thesis work, along with the other 2019 graduates! For more information: visit online.
