Co-designing Art Exhibition Experiences

Abstract

While curators use their expertise to improve audience engagement, there is potential for designers to use their knowledge through methods of co-design to enhance engagement in a way that is different to curatorial practice. In this empowering workshop, participants are invited to engage with ways that art exhibition practices can be participatory through collaboratively designing interpretation strategies for an exhibition. The event will explore opportunities to experience an exhibition in a way that resonates with visitors’ needs, interests and contexts while promoting meaningful readings and insights about artworks.This workshop is part of a PhD research project from RMIT University, under the supervision of Dr Toni Roberts and Dr Noel Waite.
