International Markets and Contexts - MIS

BRIEF

Organise, in groups, an exhibition of your own photographic work. The photographic work that you show must be developed during this module. Your group must respond to an exhibition venue/geographic area. For example, your selected venue could be a house and, by turns, the work you make may be about the domestic. You should hold a private view for the public to attend – don’t forget to invite your tutors, peers and take photographs as evidence that the event actually happened and post the exhibition details (including an invite to the PV) on the course Facebook page (and evidence this is your research).

The work you exhibit and submit for assessment should be appropriately edited, printed, mounted and framed. You must mount your own photographs and build your own frame(s) using the facilities in Centenary Building i.e. the 3d area.
