NEoN Digital Arts announce their 2022 Winter Programme!
Responding to the Global 16 Days Campaign to challenge violence against women and girls, NEoN Digital Arts presents a programme of work and a rallying cry against digital bias and online violence.
Featuring work and creative practices that use digital tools or comment on today’s complex digital relationships, the NEoN 2022 Winter Programme aims to highlight how our relationship to the digital world and online spaces reflects a myriad of social topics including freedom, censorship and gender.
All events within the programme of work are free and will take place across the city from Saturday 5 November to Saturday 17 December.
Events include:
- In collaboration with artists Batool Desouky and Cristina Cochior, NEoN present a call to action exhibition entitled ‘From Cloud to Crowd Poster Campaign’. This outdoor exhibition of slogans, statements and questions will be open to the public for free at Sharing Not Hoarding, Slessor Garden from Sat 5 Nov-Sat 17 Dec.
- BE SEEING YOU is an exhibition based around the imagery used in a roleplaying game of the same name designed by Tanya Floaker, which explores independence, control, freedom and compliance. The exhibition is open at the Federation Gallery, Keiller Centre, Sat 5 Nov-Sat 17 Dec (Wed-Sat only) 12:00pm-4:00pm.
