ARTIUM

The word ARTIUM is Latin, and when used in “Artium Baccalaureus” refers to a Bachelors Degree in Arts and Sciences, and in “Artium Magister”, refers to a Masters Degree in Arts and Sciences, the first and second degrees awarded by many Universities and Colleges.

The word ARTIUM is also found in the Latin phrase ‘Mater Artium Necessitas’ which translated to English means ‘Necessity is the Mother of Invention’.

 

 

We feel that both of these attributes resonate particularly well with students that want to live in the Artium Student Residence, who, while pursuing higher learning, are trying to balance study, work and life.

We celebrate the ART in ARTIUM throughout the residence by displaying the creative work of Gail Hodgson, a well known Kelowna resident and accomplished artist, and Miles Walker, a Vancouver artist who's surrealism works have been exhibited around the world. Gail was commissioned to design and create original works of art for the apartments and common areas of the residence. The result is a magnificent collection of Acrylic and Mixed Media Contemporary work, displayed in the living rooms and hallways throughout the residence. Miles work adorns the walls of the Social Lounge, and the Quiet Study, an incredible mix of thought provoking images, drawings and symbolism.
