Christopher Manzione's artwork pop to life. |
In line at the grocery store, at the table in a café, or out on the city streets you see people of every age peering into smartphones or tablets. Whenever there is a free moment we are increasingly driving our consciousness away from our surroundings and into the non-space of the internet. Artist Christopher Manzione takes this common scene and expands on it. In his solo exhibition at the Center for Contemporary Art, Sacramento, All Surfaces Become One, Manzione pulls the viewer into the physical realm through the a smartphone or tablet only to bounce them back out to the virtual with the use of augmented reality software, and 3D printed objects.
