fall ‘26 theme: revival
“Revival”
“an act of bringing something back to life, attention, or active use after it has been dormant, forgotten, or declining
A world overrun by efficiency is one that erases its past. Revival invites you to reconsider what we’ve left behind. Isn’t it about time we reinvent the old? Why should we give a second life to forgotten arts? Or obsess over analog film and print media? When does a copy become an original? Consider how the values of humanity and creativity hold up today in the face of a rapidly digitalized world.
Consider unplugging
Think: American folk music revival of mid 20th century / analog love in digital times / grassroots movements / scanning / grain, texture, human imperfection / stop motion / scuff / behind the scenes production / echo / metal embossing / media revival / community / cyanotype / street interviews / textile / film / boots on the ground journalism / touch.
