Abstract
This practicum project explores creative collaboration in the artistic communities and proposes the adaptive reuse of a heritage building as a satellite production and exhibition space for various arts organizations in Winnipeg. An analysis of the physical building site, an investigation of related literature, and a precedent study of architectural projects inform the proposal for the redesign of the Scott Block building, located at 272 Main St. This project examines mise-en-scène, exhibition design and performative space, and illustrates how principles of these concepts may be applied to interior architecture and objects to encourage collective art production. The goal of this practicum is to provide a deeper understanding of how interior design and the built environment can contribute to creativity and collaborative interchange in multidisciplinary settings. It also aims to present an alternative direction for production and exhibition spaces in the arts.
