A tribute to a grandfather’s life, the outcomes of marrying design with technology, the conversion of embroidery into music and recreating an office through artwork – these are the themes of the four exhibitions that are currently on display at Virginia Commonwealth University School of the Arts in Qatar (VCUarts Qatar), a Qatar Foundation (QF) partner university.
All four exhibitions, created by VCUarts Qatar faculty, staff and students, run until February 17.
The exhibitions are organised by The Gallery at VCUarts Qatar, and are on display at specific locations in the building.
