The Contemporary is excited to welcome visitors to a reception of In Our Own Worlds, a special MOSAIC Student Artist exhibition on view in our inaugural Red Dot Shop.
In Our Own Worlds is a collection of artworks created by the Contemporary’s MOSAIC Student Artists. Working alongside visiting artist Kat Cadena, students reflected on the concept of voice to discuss topics such as human rights and home. The painting workshop encouraged students to research and create their own mini murals on wood panels with alternatively shaped surfaces and textures, providing students a chance to practice problem solving as a muralist.
