About the Street Society Exhibition
A group of talented architecture students at QUB, known as the Street Society, got together with PLACE over one week in March to create a magnificent array of audio and visual material, complementing a selection of the written works in Wordscape. This collaboration gave students across the year groups freedom to express their unique talents outside the arena of coursework. The exhibition from 5th – 14th May will showcase the students’ unique interpretations and rich creative work.
This exhibition marks the launch of the Wordscape website:www.wordscapeni.com
