Stella is our Museum Director, @likethespice’s dog and has been adopted as our department’s mascot. Stella loves to hang out on the orange butterfly chair in our front office, to walk the Bridge Gallery Hall in hopes of sweet talk and light petting and most of all, to light up our students’s faces.

Laurel Nakadate is a photographer, filmmaker, video and performance artist, and the co-curator of Labor: Motherhood & Art in 2020. Labor builds off MOTHER, a fall 2018 exhibition of photography and video co-curated by Nakadate and Leslie Tonkonow Artworks + Projects in New York. For twenty years, Nakadate has made work that investigates her relationship with strangers. In Labor we will feature a work from Nakadate's series “The Kingdom”, a photo series that unites photographs of her late mother with snapshots of her newborn son, constructed by strangers Nakadate located through ads they posted online, advertising Photoshop services to “fix any image”. Nakadate was born in Austin, Texas, and raised in Ames, Iowa. She received a BFA from Tufts University and The School of The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, MA and an MFA in photography from Yale University, New Haven, CT. Nakadate’s first feature film, STAY THE SAME NEVER CHANGE, premiered at the Sundance Film Festival and went on to be featured in New Directors/New Films at The Museum of Modern Art and Lincoln Center, and her ten-year survey show, ”Only the Lonely," was on view at MoMA PS1 for six months in 2011. Her work is in many public and private collections. Image credit: Laurel Nakadate, The Kingdom #2, 2018, Type C print.
