Pop–Ups I, II, & III
w/ various students
Exhibition identity, printed matter, website (2016–2018)Pop–Ups was a series of three semester-long projects integratedf into a few different classes taught by Adam Swift Lucas over the past handful of years — the first iteration was at MICA in 2016; the second and third was at KCAI in 2018 and 2019.
The students concepted, designed, and launched independent “pop-up” projects that were required to have meaning and significance — to be more than just a means to sell or offer products, services, or experiences; and ultimately, intended to benefit others in some meaningful way.
Near the end of each project, Lucas worked closely with the students to design their final exhibition identities and materials. Each iteration responded to the students’ work and ideas, evoking the visual and conceptual diversity of their projects, capturing the enjoyment they shared in making them, while still providing a neutral and cohesive platform for the work.
