Show:<\/strong> 161 Have you ever seen the stacks of shipping containers at the end of Commercial Street in Portland and wonder where they came from? So did Maine artist Justin Levesque. After arriving home from an Icelandic vacation, he recognized Eimskip’s <\/a>Icelandic name and started thinking about why they were here. Levesque holds a BFA from USM <\/a>where he specialized in the critical analysis of images and their impact on social norms and community expectations. His ICELANDx207<\/a> project will ultimately focus on portraits of Icelanders in Maine, the revitalized shipping industry in Portland, Maine and a podcast of Levesque’s journey aboard Eimskip’s shipping vessel MV Selfoss from Portland to Reykjavik.<\/p>\n
