Work in Process

Gabriel Melcher (RISD MFA 2016, Graphic Design) shares his process of creating new work Conversation Pieces existing online and in the Museum. Conversation Pieces, was awarded this year's Dorner Prize, the annual juried competition that invites RISD student artists and designers to propose ways to engage the public using Museum spaces, objects and/or digital platforms. Conversation Pieces tests the potential for language about the collection to exist as a distinct object, separate from the collection, and considers its ability to generate new works.
Work in Process invites you to join RISD students for a conversation in the galleries about the processes and techniques they use to create art and maintain a studio practice.
