explore participatory methods through exhibit

Advertisement

The course closes with an exhibition that exposes students work to an audience beyond their peers and tutors and invites public interaction with a series of research-based artefacts. This approach continues to expose students to participative methodologies, shifting he role of the audience from passive viewer to active contributor. Bjerregaard (2019) argues that we re-imagine exhibitions as “knowledge-in-the-making rather than platforms for disseminating already-established insights”.
