"Transcendent Reality" Presents 15 Emerging Artists At The Future Front House
Over the last month, The Future Front House presented Transcendent Reality, an exhibit curated by Maria Romero and Rewon Shimray of woman-owned fine art collective The Gallery ATX.
Featuring works from 15 Austin-based artists, Transcendent Reality commented on the interplay of technology and the implications it has on our interpretation of reality, including interactive pieces that invited the audience to create their own parallel universe within the pieces through animations, personal testimonies, and moving installations.
