Inter ...: Virtual breeze, Underskirt, Live-wire-frame, Cut glass

Inter… is an exhibition co-curated by Julie Westerman and Lesley Sanderson and mounted at The Harris Museum and Art Gallery, Preston. Its theme is drawn from the novel phenomenological effects prompted by digital simulation; specifically, the concept of space as a transitional quality that lies between the real and the virtual.

Westerman’s contribution of works to the exhibition consisted of four artefacts that emphasize the impact of digital technology and visualization techniques on the conventions of representation: Virtual Breeze, Underskirt, Live-wire-frame, and Cut Glass. All were developed as computer generated images that were the basis for animation sequences translated through rapid prototyping or computer-controlled laser engraving.
