Container is a collection of documents from the 2021 master’s of arts graduates of the visual and critical studies department @ the school of the art institute of chicago

Composed in equal parts fervor and dissolution at the late-onset stage of keystroked fatigue. From a sleepless night, shoulder and neck bent longingly toward the screen, or early morning, caffeinated minds hoping to eke out coherent phrase or clean lines, or mid afternoon, nap-fulfilled extended yawn adding the finishing touch of punctuation or frame.

Gathered across the disciplines of photography, autoethnography, choreography, philosophy, history, archaeology,

Amalgamated autonomous works are in collection and collision, with no particular order but no particular disorder,

Located on the unceded homelands of the Council of the Three Fires: the Ojibwe, Odawa, and Potawatomi Nations and the Miami, Ho-Chunk, Menominee, Sac, and Fox
Container serves as an agent noun, one who comprises or encompasses, in opposition to the static tomato-stained walls of scuffed plastic tupperware or the dinged metal walls of a cargo crate.
