Patrick Meagher, media/material sculptor and social practice artist
In both his digital portals and public participatory work, Patrick Meagher creates navigation tools guiding the participant through self-discovery to dynamic interconnectivity. He makes art about technology and consciousness, in digital-pop painting, sculpture, collage, animation, and VR. His work considers human evolution in the era of emergent trans-human technology in turn of the twenty-first century-- the largest and most tumultuous technological and economic shift in the history of humankind.
Meagher's multifaceted art project entitled “Lineland”, is comprised of over 100 symbols used to create intuitive yet systematic, ‘journey drawings’, paintings, sculptures and immersive public art experiences.
This project represents the artist’s life’s work and is intended to engage and serve the public - guiding each participant through one’s own internal landscapes, personal history, hope and search for meaning.
