This spring, Concordia's Center for the Study of Learning and Performance (CLSP) hosted OBSTACLES, a multidisciplinary art residency focused on obstacles in teaching and pedagogy.
Artist-teacher-researchers from various fields, including visual arts, performance, dance, cinema, and video mapping, investigated how art can be utilized for communication, reflection, and problem-solving in response to emerging constraints.
