Installation Art

This class will be an exploration of how art can transform spaces and alter viewers’ relationships with and perceptions of them. Together we will frequently visit local art installations as inspiration for our own work. When we are not viewing work, class time will run as studio time as students create their own site-specific pieces with the opportunity to work with both digital (sound, light, projection) and physical (clay, wood, found/thrifted objects, recycling) resources. Students will choose a space on campus to focus on and if interested the class as a whole will have the opportunity to collaborate on a piece to be displayed outside at MASS MoCA in April.
