60-473 Advanced DP3: Special Topic: Print in Space

10 units, Carnegie Mellon University

Advanced DP3: Print in Space: Sculptural, Textile, Installation and participatory applications in print is and advanced print media moves print away from editioned works on paper. Students will utilize the "copy" to create immersive wall installations, participatory social sculpture, objects that act as interventions, and hand-printed yardage that can be used in soft sculpture and/or wearable forms. Projects play with the scale and reach of printed matter, question the role of design/ornament/utility within socio-political-cultural frameworks, and explore the "hand-made" within exchange and gift economies. One unit includes textile yardage printing, an opportunity to problematize artworks in relationship to the human body: as wearer, as laborer, and as consumer. Screen Printing is the main technique of this course although students are welcome and encouraged to work in all mediums, print and beyond.
