A community exhibition at Bankstown Arts Centre exploring the intersection of technology, care, and community connection. This project investigates how digital art can serve as a medium for understanding and expressing care in contemporary contexts.
Community Engagement
The exhibition emerged from collaborative workshops with local community members, exploring how technology can be used to express care, connection, and mutual support. The work challenges assumptions about technology as cold or impersonal, instead positioning it as a tool for human connection.
Conceptual Framework
"Care in the Code" examines how the values we embed in our technological systems reflect our values as a society. Through interactive installations and participatory elements, visitors are invited to consider how care can be encoded into digital experiences.
Technical Approach
The exhibition combines motion-captured movement data with community-generated content, creating visual narratives that reflect the collective experiences of participants. The technical implementation prioritizes accessibility and ease of interaction.
Impact
This project demonstrates how digital art can serve community needs while maintaining artistic integrity. By centering care and connection, the work creates space for meaningful dialogue about technology's role in our lives.
