MFA Design Candidate Emma Thorne-Christy opens her thesis exhibition, Filed Away: the undocumented experience, May 15th, 2014 (running through June 4th). Emma’s research focuses on exhibiting contemporary controversial topics in the exhibition.

Her thesis exhibition explores the experience of undocumented, DACAmented, AB540 students, DREAMers, and friends and family of undocumented people, who face a variety challenges emotionally, politically, socially, and financially in their daily lives as a result of current immigration policy. While their connection to this identity may many times go unseen, they are a part of our campus community. This exhibition acknowledges the stories of personal objects of just a few of these UCD students.
