AWE Gallery
Organized by the Center for Creative Studies in Detroit, this outdoor installation at the AGW is a 30x6x6 food galvanized steel sculpture covered with 100 handmade tiles created by high school students from the Detroit Public School Board systems. The colourful tiles, made of glass, clay, metal, acrylic, and wood, incorporate painting, printmaking, and other techniques. Each tile will depict an aspect of the shared history of Windsor and Detroit.
