Exhibition and Event: Connecting Across Physical Distances through Creativity, Art, and Technology
Torpedo Factory Art Center Target Gallery
Event on February 27, 6 – 9PM, 2025 RSVP (required), here.
Carving out Creativity is an experimental series of multimedia immersive exhibitions based on brain activity during the artistic process.
The exhibit will occur simultaneously at the four locations:
Torpedo Factory Art Center Feb. 1 – May 18, 2025 (Alexandria VA), the Virginia Tech Innovation Campus Feb. 28 to May 18, 2025 (Alexandria VA), The Taubman Museum of Art Feb. 28 to May 4, 2025 (Roanoke VA), and the Moss Arts Center Feb. 27 and 28, 2025 (Blacksburg VA).
Visitors will connect (digitally) to each other by touching stone-carved sculptures both within the location they are in and in the galleries where other artists’ sculptures are exhibited. This connection will happen using experimental haptic and holographic technologies. The exhibit creates new ways for people to envision connections through art across the Commonwealth.
