This year, Maryland Institute College of Art’s (MICA) Exhibition Development Seminar (EDS) class,
along with 11 artists, examines the continuously shifting definitions of shelter and privacy through the interdisciplinary
group exhibition, Under Cover. From Friday, Jan. 27–Sunday, March 11, the approximately 50 works of sculpture,
photography and video explore how private dwellings and public spaces have begun to merge and how, as a result,
concepts of and expectations for shelter, protection and privacy have been irrevocably altered. The class looks at how
densely populated cities, surveillance of the public and digital overexposure of personal information have contributed to
dissolving the boundary between public and private space. As public domain continues to advance, perhaps the only
shelter left is in the privacy of the mind.
