Lecture: Fine Arts Auditorium, 6pm Thursday October 20th with reception to follow

Jason Ferguson will display photographs from Domestic Carnival, a multiple-year project that involves altering entire household rooms, stripping them from their mundane symbolism, and reconstituting them as flashing, motorized, kinetic works of art. Thus the private space becomes public; the ethereal becomes tangible; and the obvious becomes obscure.
