Techne, is a series of exhibitions and contributions where artists, scientists and creators meet at the crossroads of technology and art. Techne seeks to align our artists and our community with a broader global discourse on technology and innovation in art and artistic creativity. Various contributors with artistic and scientific background will be invited to share their knowledge and experiences, educating and promoting similar practices among our local community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Babylonian Vision marks the first exhibition within Techne theme, with multidisciplinary germani-irakian artist Nora Al-Badri. Her works are research-based as well as paradisciplinary\u00a0and as much post-colonial as post-digital.
