"Boys Will Be Boys" explored different archetypes of masculinity, today’s societal pressures on men, and ramifications of institutionalized expectations. Masculinity has a long and varied history, but with the current climate, the constructs of manhood have come to the forefront of conversation. The variety of media in this exhibition continues the conversation on the limitations and outcomes of the concept of masculinity.
