Issue 4: “Affecting material and technique”

VIS issue 4 was published on October 14, 2020. The issue features seven peer-reviewed expositions within the theme “Affecting material and technique.”

VIS issue 4, “Affecting Material and Technique,” exposes artistic practices that enter into a critical and transformative dialogue with their tools, techniques and materials. Complex and entwined relationships emerge between artistic concerns and the tools, processes and techniques that form part of the practice in which those concerns are embodied. –Trond Lossius, Editor VIS #4.
