Themes
Appropriation and re-enacting of art historical works
- Address our engagement with artistic objects and aesthetic experience, and how this is affected by the digital technologies we take for granted today.
- Effect or impact of digital media on our relationship with cultural artefacts and the history of art.
- Re-enacting and referencing works from the history of the avant-garde and modernism at large, much in the manner of proposing a homage, while also distorting these works in the process.
- This strategy is a way of reflecting on the ways the languages of digital media have altered – or can alter – our relationship and perception of history, particularly art historical timelines and pre-digital modern art.
Interventions:
- Book intervention
Colour
- A less methodic (less conceptually-driven) approach. Look at colour's status in modernist and historical works (the white cube notion, Kandinsky's pure universal language, etc); and within digital media.
- The modernist discourse on colour can be juxtaposed with the code and data necessary to access these works through digital technologies.
- Question the use and perception of digital colour, by analysing the RGB colour system (which is used, for example, as the standard gamut for Internet colours),
