Expand: Projection Techniques and Technologies facilitated by Margie Medlin

In 2023, six artists (visual artists, performers, dancers film and media artists) will participate in a collaborative intensive facilitated by Margie Medlin with support from award-winning creative producers and multimedia specialists Illuminart.

PTT combines rapid skills development in emerging technologies in art and exhibition outcomes to support the exploration of interdisciplinary, site-specific and audience-focused new work.

This program follows Expand’s 2021 program Cinematic Experiments, a 10-day laboratory facilitated by Medlin, The Mill and Mercury CX, in response to creatives pushing further into exploring hybrid / digital platforms. The six artists for PTT will be selected from those who attended Cinematic Experiments, to continue this learning.

PTT participants will experience four, high-level professional development masterclasses in The Breakout at The Mill, and dedicate time to experimenting with projection technologies within their practice. The work created will culminate in Make|Shift, a 6 week immersive group exhibition in The Mill’s Exhibition Space, including an artist forum and access tours to engage audiences in the process of creation.
