About this Event

The Wayzfinding walking workshop is a prelude to the Wayzfinding exhibition, curated and designed by Suxuan Tian and Xinyuan (Caesar) Li, who are current PhD candidates in the School of Design at RMIT University.

The 2-hour Wayzfinding walking workshop will depart from the Garden Building in RMIT's Bowen Street Plaza at 11am on Saturday 23 May, and is part of Melbourne Design Week.

It will demonstrate a range of ways in which they have facilitated community design which restores relationships between people and place and supports belonging in Naarm/ Melbourne.

The exhibition translates collaborative ideas, documentation, and design experiments to reflect how walking and play can become powerful methods for exploring belonging, connection, and cultural understanding in urban life. This will include the design of interactive and co-creative workshops which encourage participants to explore the city and extend their personal connections to the city’s bio-cultural diversity. By transforming collective experiences into design artefacts, Wayzfinding celebrates walking as both a social practice and a creative methodology. We invite visitors to reimagine Melbourne through movement, dialogue, and participation.
