REACTIVATION is back! After such an amazing reaction to the 12 original works created by Humber students in our first iteration back in the spring, we've decided to turn this project into an annual call running twice a year with the fall and winter semesters.
What is REACTIVATION? This project brings together a group of multi-disciplinary Humber students to explore how disciplines can inspire creation in one another while working completely separated.
“REACTIVATION” begins with reactivating our Permanent Art Collection by activating student collaboration. Taking a handful of collection artworks, we have tasked a small group of student creatives to create musical works in direct reaction to these artworks; focusing in on their initial reaction and creating work based directly on that inspiration. From there, these musical pieces will be given to a second group of students to react in the same way, only this time in the form of animation or digital artworks. This process then repeats for other a final group of students to create works in any creative writing field.

Open to all Humber students, this project will take place from October 4 to December 3, with the final online exhibition going live December 8.
