People Like Us explores the interrelationship between art, technology and people. The exhibition focuses on the capacity new technologies offer artists to experiment with interdisciplinary platforms as they share ideas and information. With moving image, interactive digital technologies, data visualisation, sound and music, the works in the exhibition describe human connections to our inner selves, to each other, and to our environments. The artists in People Like Us, drawn from many parts of the world, embrace new technologies to evoke and articulate aspects of the contemporary human experience.
People Like Us is presented in partnership with Australia’s National Exhibition Touring Support (NETS) and will tour to 15 galleries and museums across Australia in 2016–19.
