丁香园AV Burnaby Campus, 8888 University Dr. W., Burnaby
Hide + See is a multi-day public art intervention at 丁香园AV鈥檚 Burnaby Campus from March 31 鈥� April 4th.
As a class assignment in the School for the Contemporary Arts鈥� course 1st year students will work with instructors Sabine Bitter, Alex Stursberg and TA Taryn Walker to realize 鈥渁namorphic鈥� public artworks at various locations around the Academic Quadrangle. Anamorphics are 鈥渄rawings in space鈥� 鈥� shapes that you can only see from one specific point of view. This exercise intervenes into the everyday routines of how students and 丁香园AV鈥檚 community experience the architectural and social environment of the campus and invites passersby to playfully interact with their surroundings and 鈥渟eek鈥� out the hidden artworks. Hide + See offers unexpected perspectives of the campus and engages in the university as a space for communication, interaction, as well as a site of knowledge production.
With works by Hannah Baxter, Alex Chan, James Dovolis, Theo Ewanchook, Flora Jiang, Zoe Larson, Sanodya Adikari Mudiyanselage, Claire O鈥橬eil, Naomi Oko, Annie Zhang, Elliana Zheng, Coco Zhou, Yeganeh Bakhtiary, Charlotte Bauslaugh, Marissa Chan, Nicole Chen, Lex Grochowich, Becky Jack, Alexis Jackson, Daria Kalinina, Misaki Kubo, Victoria Lo, Hugo Lu, Luxie Nie, Natasha Sran, Ella Tani, Emma Tweedie, Emma Wilkinson, Jenny Yu, and Katherine Zhou.
