Here is how I won an art competition with 257 participants but not the one with 24 : Its simple, really I did munch more research on the first one. Here is the strategy people called me "Lucky" for : ~ Study the theme, the competition judges and winners of the previous years like a science paper ~ Get the interpretation for the artwork, make it obvious, put a story  ~“Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.” Spend munch more time DEVELOPING an IDEA rather than executing it especially if its a traditional art. and... have fun enjoying the award if this helps ;) Comment about your experiences with art competitions ! P.S. I won the 2nd place, but a win is a win. Here is the source: https://lnkd.in/dwJnTpii

Modular and prefab don’t have to be boring

Once (and only when) you’re able to liberate yourself from modularity and the right angle, or at least — as in this case — in a first attempt, increase the granularity of the module and introduce non-right angles, do you start to unleash the full freedom of creativity… this is one of many reasons why it is critical for the long-term success of modular / prefab construction compagnies to participate in architect-led projects such as those of Renee Puusepp (Pattern Buildings), Jakub Pstraś / Ligia Krajewska (exexe – Ekosystem), mine (Praefabrica Corporation) and others’ who pioneer this domain of architecture.

How might we reimagine new forms of museum collaborative research for public value? 🏛 ASSEMBLY is a national research development project we are conducting in collaboration with The Australian National University and Monash University. The project aims to foster a deeper integration of research within museum practice, enhancing their educational role and expanding their impact on communities. Examining why we need to change? What should we change? How must we go about changing? Discover more about the project here: t.ly/PylL8
