Designer Artist Citizen Site: Exploring Belonging will create an independent

exhibition that responds to, expands, and challenges the U.S. Pavilion at the 2018 Venice Architecture Biennale, “Dimensions of Citizenship,” commissioned by SAIC and UChicago.

The course focuses on developing skills in the latest digital tools, including vector illustration, page layout, typographic and visual composition and data visualization for both printed and on-screen materials. As well as aiding object design development, the tools covered will enable the successful communication of storyboarded scenarios, design research, and finished objects for portfolio or on-line presentation.

Students in "Reimagining Smart Interactions with Communities" will work through their practices to create interventions at street intersections around Chicago.

The course provides an intensive, mentored environment in which students will develop focused, self-directed projects under the guidance of two AIADO faculty and produce design projects to a standard suitable for exhibition.
