UofG Landscape Architecture Student Drawings at Biennale in Venice, Italy

Submitted by dfoolen on July 12th, 2021 5:47 PM

Digital drawings, created from twelve students in the School of Environmental Design and Rural Development's (SEDRD) Landscape Architecture programs, are currently being exhibited at the European Cultural Centre (ECC) Exhibition, in conjunction with the Architectural Biennale in Venice, Italy.  This is a prestigious international design, architecture and landscape architecture exhibition and is UoG's Landscape Architecture programs' first-time showcasing student work at this exhibition.  

Landscape Architecture students from both the MLA and BLA created cartographical mapping visualizations providing an interpreted expose' of various Guelph landscapes.  Each student selected an aerial photograph and crafted  ‘map-drawings’ that visually represent and interpret their selected site.  These ‘map-drawings’ will be on display at the 'Time-Space-Existence' [1]exhibition, Palazzo Mora Venice, until the end of November 2021. 

The Palazzo Mora 2021 [2] link provides a virtual tour of the exhibition; and the SEDRD-Landscape Architecture work is located on the 3rd Floor, in Room 3B.
