With five amazing exhibitions that’s run by Director-Curator team Gordon Duggan and Sarah Joyce each year, here’s a peek at NMG’s current exhibition “TRACE” until July 1.
TRACE:
Trace presents four works from six artists. Each work details complex human-technological interactions. The representation of a face or the translation of a body to lines, marks and signals gives us insights into the way machines imagine, see, learn and remember us. Contained in this process/system is the trace of our human/technological existence. Over time we have developed technologies to make interpretive marks through systems such as drawing media, perspective, printing, code. As we develop deeper understandings of these technologies we increasingly merge with them. This exhibition speaks to the complex relationships developing between makers and technologies and looks at the marks we leave.
This mesmerizing exhibit features the following international and local artists from Paris, London, Berlin, Montreal and Tokyo!
