Class is no longer in session...

From September 3 to December 11, 2019, this site will serve as the online portal for Design Studio 1 for 2 students.

Note: these summaries are written at the end of each semester by Mindy Seu. The structure of this course is based on expansion and contraction of four multi-week projects: (1) Begin with one object. (2) Expand this into a list. (3) Condense this into a packet. (4) Expand this into a site.

Final presentations by Eric Gottshall and Sophie Auger, respectively

During our final critique, we were joined by guest critics American Artist and Asad Pervaiz , alongside Rutgers faculty Atif Akin, Gerry Beegan, Jacqueline Thaw, and Marc Handelman.

Personal Note

This was the first studio course in the inaugural MFA-D program. Having a very small group was great, because we were able to give quality attention to each project without feeling pressed for time.
