Chris Milk — A Different Canvas
Chris Milk — A Different Canvas
Chris Milk is "interested in utilizing new technology to tell stories differently than they've been told in the past." From interactive internet videos to a sea of light-up balloons, his exploration into the digital world transforms the art-viewing process from a passive one into an engaging, active experience. Milk's work challenges the boundaries of technology, integrates the digital world into the physical one, and feels, at its core, deeply personal and human.
