SFDN208 Sustainable Projects for Artists And Designers 3cr Sustainable art and design focuses on how to
leave our future more just, healthy, and
environmentally stable than it is today. Through
careful consideration of materials, life cycles,
subjects, audiences, economies, and many other
aspects of daily life, we imagine and make
projects that address significant issues
resulting from environmental impacts on human and
animal societies.
Open to students from all departments, this
course focuses on developing projects in an
interdisciplinary studio setting that address
issues of sustainability on our campus, in our
city, and in the larger global context. Research
practices, collaboration, and charrette forms are
explored through a series of assignments
including a community service project. Through
readings, field trips, visiting lecturers, and
critique, we learn about revolutionary projects
in sustainability in design and art fields today.
This class allows students to work in the medium
of their choice while focusing on research and
development in the area of sustainability.
