Furniture Studio Exhibition
Trafalgar Campus | Sheridan Gallery | AA-Wing
April 5 - 14, 2019
Furniture supports our bodies and our activities, while giving scale to the world around us. This exhibition of work by students from all four years of the Furniture Studio of Sheridan’s Bachelor of Craft and Design Program seeks to investigate this relationship between body, space and need, as students respond in unique ways to the specific constraints of each course project.
Join us for the reception for this exhibition on Friday, April 5, 2019 from 12pm to 1 pm.

Work in Progress
Trafalgar Campus | Sheridan Gallery | AA-Wing
July 3 – September 14, 2018
How do you imagine a public artwork that connects conceptually to its intended location and communicates shared values of creativity and collaboration both in process and form?
Work in Progress is a response to this question proposed for the second-floor Creativity Commons in Hazel McCallion Campus B-Wing. Led by faculty members Douglas Donald and Claire Ironside, students, faculty and staff from across Sheridan’s campuses worked together to develop and test the concept. The proposed sculpture is made from interconnected acrylic polygons (their number correlating to Sheridan’s programs, degrees, diplomas and certificates) etched with the Sheridan brand. Using projection mapping technology, the sculpture’s surface is illuminated by a dynamic data bank of images that provide insight into creative processes throughout the College. Interdisciplinary team members plan to design, render, fabricate and install Work in Progress using Sheridan community resources.
This exhibition invites you to go behind the scenes of the development of the Work in Progress proposal to learn about the overall concept and the questions, challenges and solutions recommended by its team in response to community feedback. The artwork’s creation is envisioned as a learning and teaching resource that provides hands-on experience for students from concept to installation. You can explore the different stages of models, floor plans and elevations as well as samples of the materials proposed for its fabrication. Interactive tablets provide an in-depth look at the team’s multidimensional development process and a whiteboard is available for visitors to work through ideas, raise questions and offer responses to the project.
