The specifics:

Cultural Transmissions is a site-specific installation conceived and fabricated by artists Rebecca Clune and Jacob Cluster, students in Herron School of Art and Design’s Masters of Fine Arts, Printmaking program.

Using light, color and acrylic, Cultural Transmissions celebrates both cultural distinction and cultural integration, by emphasizing the movement and communication between students, staff and faculty.

Testimonials on international travel experiences from more than fifty students, faculty and staff have been screen printed on to sheets of acrylic and formed into unique shapes and mounted throughout the hallway.

Custom Benches
Designed and created by students in Herron School of Art and Design’s Furniture Design program, each handcrafted bench in the OIA hallway has been crafted to represent the global mission and actitivites of the IUPUI Office of International Affairs.

This competitive commission was managed through Herron School of Art and Design’s Basile Center for Art, Design and Public Life, which exists to provide students with professional practice and civic engagement opportunities.
