Zenko's Statement: Short Description of the Project
Students’ work has been developed within a project that was a part of the MA study course Critical Analysis of Visual Media. Students attending the course come from various fields of design, from visual communications, interior design, fashion and textile design to design management. For the project they had to select an existing work from visual art or popular culture and interpret it. Then they had to transform this original to their own work, following a path of inner criticism (understood in a Greenbergian way as a criticism within the medium) on the one hand, and outer criticism (in a sense of social criticism), on the other. In the end they had to describe and interpret their own work and present it to other students.
