Compass Rose - Virtual Art Exhibition

Drawing of library shelves

The University of Melbourne’s New Student Precinct project, together with curatorial partner Next Wave, present Compass Rose – an online creative arts exhibition exploring our students' connection to campus through visual art, video and word.

Maps orient us in space and lead us to places we’ve never been before. The compass rose is a brilliant star that leads us in infinite directions and towards endless possibilities.

A virtual psychogeography tour, Compass Rose moves through a series of site-specific creative reflections by 17 University of Melbourne students during their time off campus in 2020.
