In Medias Res, the 2014 University of Oregon Master of Fine Arts thesis exhibition, presents the new work of five artists. The title of the exhibition, In Medias Res, is from Latin and is translated as “in the midst of things.” In storytelling, it refers to the technique of starting a narrative in the middle, rather than from the beginning. The exhibition encompasses a broad range of practices and ideas, and for the artists, it represents both the culmination of their studies and the launch of their professional careers.
