TRAN2LOCATED saw 19 Australian students, from Deakin University, translocate innovations from Geelong to Nagoya, that explore the connection between the two cities’ design and manufacturing industry—and their contemporary art, design, and technology culture. Showcasing 6 areas of innovation currently being explored in the Geelong region the students critiqued the cross- cultural context of these innovations and produced contemporary artworks that reflect this journey in an exhibition in Nagoya. The Geelong Design Week exhibition brings these reflections back to a local audience to further develop and strengthen the relationship between our two Creative Cities of Design.
