Highway Mindway

Students from London and Prague’s top art universities present their view of modern urbanism in a joint multi-disciplinary exhibition.

The collaborative exhibition between RCA & Prague’s Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design Highway-Mindway following Josef Pleskot's reflection on city highways as scars or hardened arteries of the urban organism, challenges us to think differently about public spaces.

Drawing from their diverse backgrounds, the student exchange brings experiences from their respective international hometowns together with visual interactions and different modes of communication, initially online and later in person. Explored through technology-driven metaphorical approaches, the exhibition consists of photographs, drawings, objects and moving image - explored through installations, projections, fragrances and sound.

Project led by: Wiebke Leicester, Gary Clough (RCA); Alena Kotzmannová, Tomáš Souček, Alex Bykov (UMPRUM) and curator Michal Nanoru.
