The Phygital World @ Chan Hampe Galleries (Opening Nov 27)
EVENT PRESS: "The Phygital World provides a satirical approach and commentary on how the online and offline worlds have become seamless in the way we consume information, entertainment and interaction. The artists in this show exemplify a new breed of cutting edge creators working at the intersection of ‘Phygital Culture’. They embody a ‘DDIY - Digital Do-It-Yourself’ philosophy, which has begun to redefine the limits of contemporary artistic expression." (Facebook Events)
Opening 27th November 2014, 7pm @ Chan Hampe Galleries (Raffles Hotel Arcade, Unit #01-21, 328 North Bridge Road, Singapore), is "The Phygital World Art Exhibition" - featuring works from Jack Youngblood (Martin Constable), Li-Chuan Chong, Brandon Tay, Benny Goerlach, Visual Hijack Shawn Lim, Jason Kung, Clarence Aw and Jonathan Leong AKA ZXEROKOOL, and with writings by Jeremy Fernando , Jon Gresham and Bruce Quek.
Previewed here are images of set-up (event pics via Li-Chuan Chong), and as well teasers from "the Triphtych: Garden of Internet Delights", to which ZXEROKOOL describes as: "I (am) creating a work inspired by 14th century painter Bosch's "The Garden of EarthlyDelights". The meaning should be parallel but instead of earthly delights, it's mostly how we humans use the Internet as our playground."
