INTERCONNECTED

The MTU Arts Office STEAM Exhibition Award is presented annually to one or more graduating students from MTU Crawford College of Art & Design who’s work uses or responds to “STEAM” concepts, processes, or materials in insightful and innovative ways.

Interconnected, the MTU Arts Office STEAM Award Exhibition 2022, opens from 9 November at the James Barry Exhibition Centre, MTU Bishopstown Campus.

Featuring artists Bernie Hennessy, Aoife Nolan, and Przemyslaw Richter, the exhibition uses artworks in ceramics, textiles, mixed media, video, and painting to examine human relationships with the environment and each other, how we see and interact with our own biometric data, and the effects of changes to the environment on symbiotic species.

The 2022 recipients are Bernie Hennessey, Aoife Nolan, and Przemyslaw Richter. The research behind their work looked at the effects of rising sea temperatures on algae and coral, human connections to natural materials and nature itself, and the ways biometric data is used and visualised.
