Very Very Real presents works that are enabled by the digital and the “analog” familiar; new media arts thinking explores boundaries and opens up uncovered, unrestrained new topologies. These digitally lubricated works explore proliferation and desire, abundance in our human culture, and the familiar in the unfamiliar. Using analog approaches, cultural perceptions and digital residue of cultural artefacts, these works seek to re-examine the recognizable in a dialectical fashion.Works include embroideries by Leslie Forehand, still-life surfaces of vegetative matter and digitally derived works by Roman Chikerinets, and an animated digital media piece by Katie Torn.
