WTF Cafe & Gallery is showcasing 37 works by designers from an alternative education project in the "MASSEXercise Design Exhibition".

MASSEXercise Design Exhibition runs at WTFCafe&Gallery until Feb 9. The gallery is located onSukhumvit Soi51and opens daily Tue-Sun from 4pmto 10pm. Call 02-626-6246.

The MASSEXercise project aims to create new design-related education that allows participants to articulate content, connect them to their surroundings, as well as create a process of learning that is different from the formal education system.

The exhibition is the first chance the 37 designers have had to apply their recently developed knowledge in a real-world situation.

Supported by ThaiGa and Canon Marketing (Thailand), the exhibition aims to promote learning practices as well as collaboration between participating and professional designers.

The exhibition is the culmination of a workshop that opened last August. Conducted by 18 lecturers, 20 participants were selected and asked to collaborate within a democratised environment under which they had freedom to express and conceptualise ideas about the places and people they met in their everyday lives.
