Northview Gallery exhibit ‘Data Systems Plaza’ ends April 27
Photos and story by James Hill
The exhibit, “Data Systems Plaza,” by Damien Gilley ends April 27 at the Sylvania Campus’ Northview Gallery. Come check it out before it goes away!
Gilley’s show has transformed the gallery into a temporary showroom exhibiting sculptural experiences from a fictitious company. Drawing influence from science fiction and technology developments of the early digital era, the works reference an industry that posits advanced, speculative, and futuristic products and phenomena.
