Failure
March 9 – 27, 2015
Reception Friday, March 13, 5-8pm

Within the disciplines of art and design, there is an inherent element of risk. Answers are not pre-determined, and outcomes are the natural extension of the biases, influences and processes we undertake. Failure occurs in abundance. We encounter it everywhere from the collapsing of a structure to the deliberate misinformation of agitprop. Even though artists and designers are prone to walk a path of (un)intended consequences, we have also notably used failure in our working practice intentionally. In this exhibition, students from the winter term course on Failure will be exhibiting their various investigations into what failure means socially, personally, and as part of a working practice.
