A Virtual Exhibition In-site, Incite, + Insight

October 28 to November 7

Rather than experience the festival’s exhibition on-site, this year we experience it “in-site” — in a website, in the digital world, in the virtual. The works in the festival this year have been selected with the intention of being experienced virtually.

The artists bring insight to their experiences of the world having changed, how it continues to change and what this change can offer. This includes our growing awareness around mental health, our relationships with both the physical and digital worlds, and how the works can incite us into action. The exhibiting works investigate these themes and more, providing room to engage with the arts in a time when interacting and experiencing work has been significantly impacted. Through these works, we recognize that we are in the moment, in the current, in the site.

In(site) is an interactive virtual exhibition with some in-person components. If any online or in-person access is a barrier, please contact Paulina Wiszowata at paulina_wiszowata@workmanarts.com.

The In(site) exhibition is part of the 2021 Rendezvous With Madness Festival presented by Workman Arts. To see further programming in the festival, please visit the Schedule here.
