Exhibition Brief

UM Flint art students chose to put on a art exhibition centered around the idea of circles. According to UM Flint, a "circle is a universal symbol with extensive meaning. It represents the notions of totality, wholeness, original perfection, the self, the infinite, eternity, timelessness, and all-circle movement."  What does a circle mean to you? 

For this exhibition I created interactive elements that were featured along side the artwork. On top of that, I led the space planning group. We were in charge of layout, display, and artwork placement. Art exhibitions aren't traditionally very more visitor centric, so I chose to focus on ways I could change that. A voting station is a quick and easy way to make visitors feel engaged, a checkerboard provided entertainment for children or long-staying visitors, and an interactive art piece where visitors are encouraged to reflect on their experience allowed them to participate in making the exhibition as "artists" themselves.
