Project Description: The 2017-2018 Praxis cohort has moved the material history of UVa out of Special Collections and onto Grounds. Using a mobile Artifical Reality application, UVa Reveal explores otherwise hidden stories, histories, and questions surrounding objects and areas at UVa. In doing so, UVa Reveal prompts users to re-examine their everyday spaces and critically reflect on the structure, culture, mission, and history of the university.
