KISMET, things have changed

A show that has been a decade in the making. 

Ten years ago, four artists in their late 20’s and early 30’s travelled across the country to interview 100 people, aged 1 to 100. Now, a decade later and in a very different place in life, the same team set out to find the surviving people and interview them again. What they discovered on the road is revealed in a complicated yet intimate portrait of change. 

Not so much a sequel as a stand-alone look at the dramatic shifts can take place over the course of a decade.
