Playtime exhibition

Produced by ArtHouse, Jersey the Playtime exhibition welcomed over 2000 visitors in June 2023, including a decent number of people who'd never been to an art show in Jersey. To capture my childhood era of Fort Regent we included a mixture of photographs, vintage objects, smells and AI-assisted reproductions of my dreams and memories. This gave us the opportunity to invite visitors to engage with issues around AI ethics, which got a fascinating response from lots of people. I also delivered a series of workshops to students and helped them create some simple AI-based art from their own fantasies about the leisure centre on the hill. I will include the interpretation boards as text panels if I can work out how - it was a fun challenge to write about art in a decidedly non-gallery style and make it accessible to a range of visitors. Some of this work is still for sale, please contact me if you are interested. The Lightboxes look fantastic! Prints were by Spectrum Photographic in Brighton, lightboxes by Addlux.
