Installation

Art installation in the installation classroom, Hillyer Hall 204.
A project in the installation classroom, Hillyer Hall 204.

The installation courses embrace a broad range of practices: object/material, site, performance, social practice, and intersections across media. The primary facility is H204, a large empty space with white walls on either end, floor-to-ceiling windows, a grid near the ceiling for hanging and a black floor. All furniture (tables, chairs) is moveable and removable. Projects are also sited on the campus grounds, in academic buildings and occasionally in the community.
