PROJECTS
MADE - Commission Winner
We are very pleased to announce that UK artist Joseph Hyde is the winner of the MADE Commission.
Joseph will create me and my shadow, a multi-site telepresence project taking place in four European cities (Istanbul, London, Mons and Paris). It consists of a virtual environment experienced in four installations (one in each city), which act as portals to an online space.
The project will be developed in four residencies and the final outcome will be presented in June 2012 at centre des arts, Enghien-les-Bains, France and simultaneously in the other partner locations. The UK residency is a co-production with the National Theatre.
