MassArt x SoWa is proud to present our thirteenth Alumni Curatorial Project, PENDING, curated by Aghigh Afkhami (MFA '25 Photography). Join us for a celebratory reception on First Friday, March 6 from 5-8pm (open and free to the public)! 

PENDING emerges from this condition of interruption and unresolved transmission. Rather than forming around shared identity or geography, the artists are connected through delay, fragmentation, and incomplete connection, each work resembling a message caught mid-journey. The exhibition invites viewers into this unresolved space, where communication loses its certainty and meaning remains suspended — “We stand together in this shared darkness—not waiting for an answer, but aware that there may be none.” — Aghigh Afkhami, Feb 11
