RISD Graduate Show 2021

Film featurette commissioned by  the RISD Graduate Studies Office at Rhode Island School of Design to accompany the 2021 RISD Grad Summer Conversation Series.

During the pandemic, the importance of documenting what the students were going through became critical, both with impending graduation and their thesis show. For the first time, the Graduate Thesis Show would be installed between two locations in these unprecedented times - the RISD Museum of Art and the Waterfire Arts Center. Aside from being the first time the show's installation has been documented on video, it highlighted the tireless efforts of the Director of Campus Exhibitions, Mark Moscone and the gallery installation team navigating this annual show in such precarious times.
