The University of Westminster’s Broad Vision project presents ‘Data, Truth & Beauty’, an exhibition exploring the integrity and aesthetics of information. Opening at GV Art gallery, London on 23 May, the exhibition and accompanying events bring together the works of an interdisciplinary group of art and science students engaged in collaborative experimentation and research. Featured works include data bending and glitch art, bacterial portraiture and self-illuminating sculpture, studies on perception, and dream inducing installations – the result of what happens when a group of curious and questioning minds come together to explore new territories and ask ‘What if…?’

Accompanying Events:

Saturday, 25 May, 1.00 – 5.00pm (drop in, no booking necesssary)

Data, Truth & Beauty: BioArtTechHack at GV art gallery, London.
