This document provides guidance for an art project that involves testing boundaries through developing new work and exhibiting it in a different context than usual. Students are instructed to choose an exhibition site, make new work for that site, document the process, get feedback from their peer group, and write a 1,000-1,250 word reflective piece evaluating the task. A schedule is provided with deadlines for images, tutorials and presentations. Suggestions are made for potential exhibition sites and engagement formats to help students consider pushing their practice in new directions.
