From Jan. 13-Feb. 13, the Watkins Gallery will host the exhibition “Retrack,” by artists Dana Potter and Alex McKenzie.
“Retrack” is an immersive installation that uses augmented reality, sound, printmaking, cyanotypes, and multi-channel projection.
Like a clock visits and revisits the hours, the same symbols pass by again and again. A repetition of sounds rise and fall, 3D objects sway in and out, particles generate and oscillate.
“Retrack” invites viewers to consider repetition as both a constant and a means for change. Within the installation’s collage of various media, the work also asks important questions about the quickly-evolving relationship between traditional visual art disciplines like printmaking and new media such as augmented reality.
This exhibition is free and open to the public.
