Digital Showreel

What is Digital Art?

Digital art grew out of artists experimenting with different art forms such as photography, film, lighting, sound, projection, online media and now into digital technology.

It can best be summarised as: an artwork where digital technology is an integral part of the making or showing of that artwork – it would not be the same artwork if you removed the digital element.

We want everyone try something new, and then try it again! Our digital programme is as varied as it is future-facing – you are guaranteed to experience something new every time.
