Simon Kerr / 5 Haitis
Date: Wed, 10 Aug 2011
Venue: Phoenix
Part of the DMU Master's Showcase at Phoenix Square which exhibits the exciting work produced by current students on the innovative Masters in Creative Technologies (MA/MSc), run from the Institute of Creative Technologies at De Montfort University.
The work of the two students exhibiting - Simon Kerr and Dominika Dronska - shows the diversity of the creative work produced by IOCT Master's students. Neither sit solely within traditional disciplines, their work crossing art and design, technology and humanities. Simon Kerr's '5 Haitis' is an interactive multi-media piece that uses digital graphics, animation and sound to portray personal stories about the Haiti Earthquake. Dominika Dronska's nine artworks that together form 'An Animated Print – An Animated Viewer' use lenticular lenses to explore how viewers can physically interact with visual art.
In support ofhis exhibition '5 Haitis' Simon Kerr will be holding an hour long talk to discuss his exhibition and work.
