Yonge-Dundas Square and the RBC Centre for Emerging Artists & Designers are excited to announce the OCAD U Animation take-over as part of our Experiential Learning program!
The Yonge-Dundas Square placement provides ten animation students with the opportunity to showcase their work on the digital screens of Yonge-Dundas Square. Our students were asked to respond to the theme of site-specific community and placemaking by responding to the historical, current and future experiences of the Square.
The OCAD U Experiential Learning animation take-over will be shown across five (5) digital screens throughout the month of July 2024.
Artists:
Ted Lutman, Jessica Zeng, Victor Shen, Diana Wu, Paris Lin, Yiwen Su, Gardiner Zhang, William Bi, John Li, Gunhwan Kim
