Exhibition Statement
With the development of social networks in the digital age, the world seems to be constantly connected in a huge network, resembling each other. People living in their contemporaries feel closer to the political, economic, cultural and social issues globally and feel more connected than ever before. Networking activities on the internet work as a communication channel that transcends the physical constraints, reflecting voices of various individuals based on real-time community build-up and the commentary culture, and sharing their daily lives and thoughts every day.
The COMO & HAPPY SCREEN exhibition The Quotidian: Same but Different introduces two artworks by Swiss artist, Marc Lee, who focuses on computer programming-based multimedia installations. 10.000 Moving Cities – Same but Different, Mobile App, which allows you to physically experience a virtual city utilizing multimedia technology, connects cities that are far away from each other mapping people’s thoughts uploaded on their SNS. The virtual urban skyline is reconstructed in real-time by posts on social networks. Location-based Twitter posts allow visitors to empathize in a virtual world where they participate in social movements of our time and continuously experience local, cultural and linguistic similarities and differences.
