DAVE BRIGGS
I intend to envelop the audience in digital landscapes that are constantly extending into the natural world. My work is involved with hyperrealism, and its relation to digital media. I am interested in deconstructing the various methods of contemporary media. The general aim of my projects are to encapsulate the shifting materiality of digital imagery, and the Internet systems that underpin contemporary culture. In the past, I have explored popular Internet websites such as Google, eBay and Flickr. Each of these, indeterminate and ambiguous, exist in non-physical spaces.
