Smart Objects and Flattened Images, a group exhibition curated by Kelda Van Patten, brings together 51 predominately lens-based artists from different parts of the country, who all, in varying degrees, reflect on the overlapping of the artificial and the real within this hyper-digital age. These works either create a sense of confusion as they move from one reality or plane to another, and/or bring to mind the fading distinction between our physical and corporeal experiences and our digital, cerebral ones.
