IRIDESCENT COMMERCIAL

Project Brief

Media Arts has been rapidly growing in the recent decade. With this project, design a media arts education & production centre.

Concept Statement

Media arts is a display of emotions conveyed using everyday objects, such as paper. Whether it be the artist’s emotions themselves or invoking feelings of the observer, it becomes a manipulation of both material and emotions. The open-endedness of the field allows for more than what meets the eye-- as what appears to be simple objects often have meanings that gouge on a deeper level.

USER(S)

Contemporary Dancers, Projection Mappers, Researchers, Videographers

INSTRUCTOR(S)

Jason Shields, Clifford Goodwill & Hyeonji Kwon

PROJECT DATE

January 2021 - April 2021

PROJECT LOCATION

310 Ross St., Winnipeg, MB

The media arts center is to become a place where analog meets digital. The space is aimed towards contemporary dancers that would work in collaboration with projection mapping to create a performance that encaptures one, reeling them deep into their emotions. Several of the spaces within the media arts center would be transparent, allowing one to look into each space, inviting them in, as inspired by conceptual work. Filled with studio spaces, it becomes a space for collaboration, where ideas run wild. Dark tones contribute to the intimate space, with window details allowing colours to fill the space, mingling with each other. Overall, the space will become an educational, collaborative space that is welcoming and accessible to all.
