Slide To Expose (Feb 23-March 9) is the collaborative augmented reality exhibition between 3D visual artist Nicole Ruggiero, American artist Molly Soda, and Berlin-based collective Refrakt. The AR experience aims to explore the interpersonal depths of digital intimacy, privacy, life/death, and the new perceptions that these concepts endure through technology and AR.
The BABYCASTLES exhibition, closing Thursday, March 9, utilizes the visitors’ phones when entering the bedroom filled with digital objects and materials that are only seen through the accompaniment of the visitor’s iphone. Scanning a pillow creates a text message, scanning a mug generates an email, each, together, creating a second living layer in a constant state of fragmentation and regeneration. An infinite cycle of new life and immediate death all in one space.
