Transcend: The Designer as Creator.
The American Student Exhibit is guided by the theme Transcend: The Designer as Creator.
We seek works in which the designer transcends traditional job boundaries and can legitimately be labeled a dramaturg, a director and / or a co-creator – emotionally potent works that showcase the student designer as a cutting-edge generative artist, and engaged storyteller.
We seek work that is unique, unexpected, and exciting – student creations that transcend the representational and the expected to redefine the connection between image and story.
We seek vital and engaged visual storytelling that transcends the typical relationship between the stage and the audience – with a particular interest in site-specific work, performance art, puppetry and mask, toy theatre, solo and self-directed works, as well as the use of new and emerging media.
