The Dunedin School of Art printmaking department opens a collaborative exhibition today called "4Sight".

The exhibition is an exploration of media by the department and celebrates the diversity of print technologies in a selection of works by senior students and lecturers, demonstrating a range of processes and techniques, exhibition spokeswoman Lucy Walsh said in a statement.

"4Sight" also offers a sneak peek at the developing projects of soon-to-be-graduates.

The exhibition is in the school's printmaking department, at 19 Riego St, Dunedin. It runs until September 17.

> Where visitors interact

"Introduced BIRDS", an exhibition by the artist collective ffffff, opened at the Blue Oyster Gallery on Tuesday.

The exhibition consists of a series of interlinked environments designed to conjure up a nervous tension and feeling of barren isolation.

Visitors become performers as they move through three minimalist environments, activating the space with movement and sound, according to a statement.

The exhibition runs until Saturday, October 2.
