Master of Design Showcase
The Master of Design (MDes) online showcase is viewable at nscadmdes.myportfolio.com
For their exhibition, first year NSCAD Master of Design (MDes) students were inspired by the Nova Scotia government’s 2019 legislation banning single use plastic bags. Students researched the impact of plastics on the environment, drawing from seminar reading and discussion, with a focus on design as a tool to create not only things, but ideas speculating on possible futures. This exhibition is the outcome of their deliberations for their class, MDes 6061 Design Studio Workshop: Ideation, Concept Development and Designing with Professor Marlene Ivey.
