Abstract: This study deals with the pedagogical potential of video installation as a medium for spatialinquiry in a foundation-level design education program. Within the post-pandemic environment, where the way we consume online content has altered our view of video and space, this research brings video installation as a new experiential way of learning. Through a site-specific Installation workshop with Design Foundation students, the study considers the integration of moving images as a medium to develop a form in a specific space using time to build the narrative and develop perception. The theories used are those of media art, expanded cinema, and spatial forms and aesthetics, based on qualitative observations, student reflections. The findings underline the video installation as an excellent arena for transdisciplinary learning, encouraging critical thinking, spatial consciousness, and creative risk-taking in young designers. This paper contributes to the discussion on new media pedagogy and proposes a model for introducing immersive, media-based approaches in initial design education.
