BLINK

BLINK brings together a curated selection of work developed by artists in residence at Digital Arts Studios over the past year.

ARTISTS:

Alannah Bates

Catherine Chapman

Silvia Koistinen

Vanissa Law

Anna Vidamour

BLINK brings together works that explore moments of perceptual slippage, where images glitch, dissolve, or drift. There are no stable truths here, no fixed positions or clear narratives; yet the body returns as a site of orientation, resisting the speed and fragmentation of contemporary culture.

Collectively, these works speak to a present marked by perceptual instability, where digital mediation, sensory overload, and fractured attention have unsettled how we locate ourselves in the world.

BLINK insists that while meaning may be unstable, it is not absent.

Alannah Bates’ work un.earth uses CGI to reconstruct Irish sacred sites into unstable, shifting digital landscapes that explore memory, loss, and the dislocation of cultural meaning.

Silvia Koistinen’s video installation Notes from the Sun invites viewers into a sensory encounter with shifting sunlight.

Vanissa Law’s interactive audiovisual installation It’s More Fun to Sink Them uses face tracking to distort political speech and image in real time, turning media spectacle into a playful and unsettling encounter.

 Catherine Chapman’s digital video Byzantine Floor Plan explores attention and imagined space; merging digital loading aesthetics with historical architecture to create a quiet disruption of perception and everyday experience.

 Anna Vidamour’s intimate video work I Have Yet to Let the Water Wash You from My Mind invites a slowness and bodily reconnection.

BLINK runs at PS2 from 2nd - 25th of April ‘26. Open Tuesday to Saturday, 12 - 5pm.

Opening reception: 2nd April, 6 - 9pm.
