shemza digital across generations at wolverhampton art gallery 2160p
The shemza.digital exhibition features the work of renowned British Pakistani Modernist artist Anwar Jalal Shemza alongside the contemporary practice of Aphra Shemza, the artist’s granddaughter. It continues Shemza’s aesthetic exploration of an abstract form and extends his legacy for current and future generations. Launched in collaboration with the computer artist Stuart Batchelor, highlights the importance of migrant artists in British Art History and celebrates diversity in our increasingly polarised political climate.
The exhibition features participatory digital projections that invite you to create your own digital paintings that will become part of the ever-evolving archive of work, and will be exhibited in the gallery space. Interactive architectural sculptures respond to visitor’s movements. A specially commissioned soundscape by NYX and Petit Oiseau accompanies the work, fusing traditional South Asian instruments with drone & ambient electronic sounds.
