"The process of reflecting on and catchin g up with DoVA alumni from the past decade has been a pleasure. There is an incredible abundance of interesting work being made by this community\ , far more than could be represented in a single show. I am not aiming to provide a clear summation of DoVA or its sensibilities\, although some m ay emerge when all the work comes together. The main rule was that the wo rk had to be produced since completing the program. An art dep artment can feel like a revolving door— students enter\, they push and are pushed\, they expand and contract\, and get spit out the other side. For this exhibition\, I am interested in the question\, 'And then what?'.
