Undoing Hierarchy
Fall 2023
Boston, MA
RISD

Collaboration with Kristina Miesel
Museum Exhibition Gallery Design

This proposal is to create a designated gallery in the MFA Boston designed to allow visitors to experience the MFA’s permanent collection in a space that eliminates the temporal and spatialhierarchy  present in their existing museum curation. This will enable visitors to engage with the work in a more thought-provoking way, providing them with opportunities to explore a wide range of pieces without the sense of an overarching hierarchy creating biases towards specific cultures. Where
multiple worldviews converge, new ways of seeing, thinking, and understanding emerge.
The conversations we inspire bring people together—revealing connections, exploring differences, and creating a community where all belong.
