Artists at Home
A small offering for your phone, a new way of seeing yourself online and a collage of memories. Artists at Home is a collection of digital activations created by three NSW-based artists for the Art Gallery’s social media channels.
Published in October 2021 during the NSW lockdown, these projects by Sidney McMahon, Claudia Nicholson and Giselle Stanborough are playful and humorous, thought-provoking and poignant, and at times invite an element of interactivity or participation. All are responsive to the current moment and our shared experience of the digital world.
