Augmented Revolution
First Nations peoples have a long history of innovation and adaptation, and have been using technology in various forms for millennia.
In its inaugural series, this special Illuminate Adelaide experience curated by Dearna Newchurch sees contemporary First Nations artists leveraging the emerging technology of AR as a storytelling platform. Harnessing this technology through a First Nations lens, Augmented Revolution reimagines our device as a powerful tool to express ways of knowing and being.
Embodying their own unique perspectives and styles, the artists will explore themes of identity, connection to Country and disruption. Featuring within City Lights and brought to life by Monkeystack at select sites throughout the city, Augmented Revolution will be a celebration of the richness and complexities of First Nations living culture.
There are three successful artists commissioned for Augmented Revolution 2023: Carly Tarkari Dodd, Jaydenlee Tong, and Temaana Yundu Sanderson-Bromley.
