'Strangers'
MJC Photography Student Collaborative Exhibit
"How do you respond to a stranger? Do you quickly cast your eyes downward to avoid
feeling uncomfortable? Or do you look directly into that stranger’s eyes, smile, and
perhaps offer a greeting?
Strangers is a collaborative project between MJC’s Photography, Humanities, and Communication
Departments, and documents how students and staff stepped into each other’s intimate
space to be photographed and interviewed about their experience. If you were asked
to be photographed with a stranger, what would you say?"

“Schism: The Art of the Fractured Self”
Artwork by Jay Scantling
Through painting, sculpture and video, Schism: The art of the Fractured Self depicts
and reflects the fracturing and dissociation of identity in the face of trauma and
its reconfiguration through the creative process. Through imagery derived from dreams
and paralleling themes from mythology, the show presents the transformations of the
self in response to adversity and the creation of art as cycles of destruction followed
by renewal. Schism is about the construction of beauty and meaning out of the horror
of overwhelming life experience.
