Designers Talking with Silas Munro
OPENING RECEPTION: Fri, March 25, 6–9 p.m. FOLLOW-UP DIALOGUE: Sat, March 26, 1 p.m.
Silas Munro is a designer who utilizes a multi-modal practice to inspire people to be the best versions of themselves in order to effect positive change on society as a whole. He earned his BFA from Rhode Island School of Design and holds an MFA from California Institute of the Arts. His design studio, Poly-Mode primarily works with cultural institutions and community based organizations including The Center for Urban Pedagogy, MoMA, Walker Art Center, and Wynwood in Miami, Florida. He has been a critic at CalArts, Maryland Institute College of Art, North Carolina State, and York University. Munro serves as Assistant Professor of Art and Graduate Director, Experience Design, Miami University and Founding Faculty in the MFA Program in Graphic Design at Vermont College of Fine Arts.
Munro’s research addresses the relationship between the designer’s personal identity, formal systems and strategies s/he utilizes, and how both interact with the communities s/he serves. He is particularly interested in the often unaddressed post-colonial relationship between design and marginalized communities. This has taken tangible form in design work and writing that have been published via books, exhibitions, and websites in Germany, Japan, Korea, the US, and the UK such as: Chronicle Books, IDEA Magazine, and Slanted Magazine.
The Designers Talking series is part residency, part gallery, and part conversation that seeks to connect thinkers, artists, and problem-solvers through discussion about interesting ideas and solutions through the lens of graphic communication.
