Digital technology has become a medium that has redefined the arts broading horizons and changing practices. New works that explore interactivity and the possibilities opened up by mulitmedia and electronic technologies to create immersive experiences bring physicality and play to the digital medium. Interactive installations and sculptures have the unique ability to change and respond to the presence of a viewer.
Tweak presents an exhibition showcasing technologically infused objects and installations which engage an audience in physical interaction.
This years exhibition will hold a range of experimental objects from international artists and designers, which engage our senses via unexpected narratives.
This exhibition showcases work that provides a platform for collective exchange between viewer and the artwork. It calls for invention which connects with real complicated pleasures of the human senses and the curious mind. These objects are the products of non-linear thinking where technologically enhanced artefacts trigger a play with senses.
Tweak Exhibition is curated by Nora O Murchú
