Overview

With a classic, new-wave style, The Queensland University of Technology Art Museum brings together a collection that is pleasantly different. Centred around the idea that the best technology-based art doesn't always stem from the most high-tech or latest shiny gadget, Foundation's Edge: Artists and Technology teases out the raw creativeness that can emerge for the most basic of technologies.

At the creative hands of artists Michael Candy, Lawrence English, Benjamin Forster, Caitlin Franzmann, Ross Manninng and Ken and Julia Yonetani, this display presents work that strays from the intended use of technological devices, pushing them to their potential as an art medium. Through the exploitation, deconstruction and the reworking of such commercial and recognised devices, these artists bring their work to a creative ends unexpected by the untrained eye.

Be sure to check out this new and innovative collection of work – you'll be pleasantly surprised at the beauty technology can behold.
