About the Show
A Life Undone reflects Ellen Mahaffy’s uneasy relationship with her father and expands upon one of her previous site-specific installation, Nothing Was Ever Said (1993). These bodies of work excavate artifacts from two generations of her family. Her goal is to extend this project into a new site-specific installation and photo book that explores themes of (dis)ease within her father’s life.
Ellen Mahaffy is currently a professor at UW–Eau Claire, where she teaches visual communication and photography.
