- Description:
- Jonathan Bouknight is a 2014-2015 Working Artist Project award winner who in working with a cast of skilled performers, created the film Nightingales, a durational meditation on one's continual reach for ideals beyond physical limitations. Themes of metamorphosis, beauty, desire, and failure are explored within the earnest attempts of the performers to become something more than themselves. Curated by Siri Engberg as part of the Museum of Contemporary Art of Georgia's Working Artist Project the artist created a series of mixed-media works to be debuted in tandem with a viewing of the film. The exhibition was curated by Siri Engberg and the catalog includes samples of these photographs and essays by Alex Robins and Lilly Lampe.
