Scope Creep - Digital Design in Contemporary Art

Jeremy Bailey, Alex Delany, Constant Dullaart, Shana Moulton, Jon Rafman
Curator: Mikhel Proulx


Scope Creep gathers five artists who are working under the polished skin of digital culture, engaging with the core of its design. They have turned their attention to the tools and languages of digital imagery to confront the technologized world around them. Their artworks expose and question the assumptions and expectations of mainstream design. Here, the sometimes-flexible boundaries between art, design and technology lends to a re-appraisal of common practices in the network age.

In a system that values clean logic and effective solutions, how useful are gestures that point back to the uncertain realm of questions? Scope Creep invites such critical questioning of the designed world around us.
