Navigating Lolelaplap

During my summer 2024 internship with the exhibition design department at Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, I assisted in planning two upcoming exhibitions: Knowing the West and Navigating Lolelaplap. Navigating Lolelaplap highlights Marshallese culture, featuring their navigational tools, religious items, handicrafts, and the history of nuclear testing in the Marshall Islands. I worked on a tentative design for the exhibition’s floor plan, interior colors, pedestals, and seating. My design goal was to use minimal elements to create an interpretive environment that offers visitors an immersive experience of the Marshallese culture.
