Larger Than Life

BONNIERS KONSTHALL, Stockholm Sweden 20.03.13 - 26.03.13

Art Hack Day is an event dedicated to cracking open the process of art making. Between April 11-13, sixty artists and hackers will inhabit Bonniers Konsthall to create a flash exhibit on the theme of "Larger than Life".

Indeed, the notion of surveillance seems to crumble as we document our lives publicly. Technology has made us artists and archivists. Can you resist the temptation to reshape your own and other's perception of yourself? Do you live for posterity? Are you larger than life?
