The moment i decided i wanted to curate....

This exhibition is what made me interested in the curation-side of things, SK-interfaces was a colllaborative exhibition that was undertaken by 22 artists and 3 curators. The aim of which was to explore new developments in creative technologies, processes, forms and potential languages. The exhibition presented a number of artists who are utilizing a set of un-common tools to comment on the evolution of our human futures.I found this exhibition to be quite an unusual one as it is the unifying theme of the exploration into new technologies that makes them a collaborative, each of the featured artists displays their pieces and the curators have succeeded in bringing them together in a way that is at once unifying but separate. Walking around this exhibition gave me that sense of - i wish i could do this, but for the first time ever i wanted to bring the artists together instead of being an artist myself. What i took away from this exhibition was more than just an amazing exhibition book, it was a sense of a different option for myself.
This is the amazing exhibition book which uses an aspect of the exhibition - Thermocromatic ink, which reacts to heat


It's the culmination of all the separate parts of the exhibition that i feel make it so strong, the curators have obviously worked exceedingly hard and well to produce a show that leaves the viewers imagination alive with the possibilities.
