“20 students, 5 mentors, 1 story “

The art of story telling is a collaborative effort. A story can go back and forth between people, constantly evolving as they each add imagination, embellishments and flourishes. Collaboration also isn’t a foreign concept in design. Through design we take the same back and forth process of storytelling beyond a verbal exchange into more visual and tangible outcomes.

We invite 20 students, split into 5 groups, to interpret a single story within a given focus. Each group will be working alongside an industry professional as a source of guidance, direction and education.

SEE-SAW is an exercise in collaboration, conversation and creativity.  Each group has two days to battle over a design brief and install their response in the gallery. You are invited to watch them in action at Gaffa Gallery, and witness the gradual installation of the show over 10 days.
