About the project #ASUResilienceRising

The first of its kind on a university campus, the ASU Resilience Rising is an original,  large-scale (approx 30' - 50' tall) Augmented Reality (AR) public art installation to be developed on the Tempe campus as a digital tribute to the resilience of the ASU community. Student input and digital content, personal resilience stories, will be incorporated into an AR COVID Quilt surrounding viewers and integrated into the immersive experience of Resilience Rising

Impact and background

The AR art installation will offer a lasting, living, digital document for future and ongoing research; a commemorative and cathartic tribute for healing; and a pioneering experiment of collective engagement in digital public art. Initiated bySFISASU Resilience Rising is a collaboration between faculty and students from the Meteor Studio (AME), ASU-Leonardo, and Herberger’s School of Art Visiting Artist William T. Ayton
