Exhibits
Design Innovation exhibits - housed in our DI Gallery and Blank_Lab - highlight creative work, emerging technologies, student projects, and interdisciplinary ideas through engaging public displays and experiences.
Design Innovation accepts exhibit proposals throughout the year. The proposal process is open to all ñstudents, staff, faculty, alumni, and affiliates and offers the opportunity to publicly display artwork, design, research, or fabrication projects within the DI Hub. Exhibitions can be a work in progress, finished expression, example of technological or scientific innovations, or other project, but should emphasize cross-disciplinary collaborations and reflect the mission of the Design Innovation Initiative.
Current Exhibits
Kristen Mimms Scavnicky’s installation explores the transformative power of everyday rituals—washing, eating, and gathering—as acts that sustain cultural identity across generations. Through sculptural soaps, etched tablescapes, and material experimentation, Scavnicky creates what she describes as “soft architectures,” objects that exist both in intimate and within communal space.
