Immersive Surfaces
This project has been positioned as the center piece for the DUMBO Arts Festival. That fact presents a wonderful opportunity for creative/artistic collaboration around a central theme/concept.
The idea being that, as artists/human we all exist in our own plane but as a whole are a part of a bigger "Picture." Visa vie, the sum is much greater than the individual parts.
This is an opportunity for both personal success as well as making a contribution to the greater community.
That said, there exists a proposal, up for discussion. That proposal has been distilled down to one simple question. A question that no matter your artistic voice or approach can be answered in many ways:
How are we a society?
SECONDARY THOUGHT TO CONSIDER PRESENTING.
The Immersive Surfaces title makes for a great, verbal, jumping off point for the viewer. If this concept is successful and this show is successful it could set up a great platform for artists to be discovered. If successful, Immersive Surfaces would be an annual event held at different venues around the globe. Each show would showcase a different group of artist collaborating around answering a different social question.
