Metropolis: Student participatory artwork

Make your mark across Metropolis during Semester 2 Orientation!

Make your mark across Metropolis. Suit up and use paint to track your experience. Can you follow the map? Together navigate the obstacles. All students are welcome during Semester 2 Orientation. 

This participatory experience invites you to co-create an artwork named Metropolis with artist Rachel Shugg and fellow students. Then in August, Rachel will transform this into a public artwork. 

This artwork uses paint, and protective gear will be supplied.
