The measure of learning opportunities as an extended space through this art installation, Fill in the Blanks, can be inferred by the 40 landscapes captured, each with a school desk. Every photograph presents an immersive experience for authentic learning opportunities. When the landscapes have more significant meanings to the students, these landscapes will stand out. The curated learning environment could be part of their life aspirations or what they perceived their future space could be. Some landscapes could trigger a moment within the individual’s inner space as well. All of these curated learning spaces bring forth significance and wonderment in the student’s life as they go through the grind of academics.
