Vicki Smith
Vicki Smith weaves a path through four works that intersect with the Aotearoa Digital Arts Network, either via network members or in typifying the often multi-disciplinary approaches of ADA artists. She uses a metaphorical net to draw connections between the works and the communities they encompass, and how technology threads her creative investigations. Vicki addresses each project briefly and sums up with an invitation to further explore them, and others through her site artecology.net, the artist monograph produced for her retrospective exhibition earlier this year in which she showcased a broader range of work created over the last three decades of making.
