The Artists of Color Collective: 

Digital Entanglements

Aug 14 - Sep 18, 2021

Opening Reception: Thu, Sep 9, 6 - 9 pm

Tiger Strikes Asteroid Philadelphia is pleased to present Digital Entanglements, an exhibition featuring the work of The Artists of Color Collective (AoCC). AoCC is currently Tyler School of Art’s only diversity organization. Founded in 2015, the collective has served as a home for creatives of color within Temple University, hosting various events and most recently publishing their first zine Breaking Boundaries. “We exist and function within this larger institution as both a space for exploration of artistic practices as well as for conversations about personal experiences.”  

The multimedia exhibition was curated by AoCC and includes work by 10 of the collective members. “We focus on blurring the lines between the technological and the organic and how this duality impacts our consciousness. As a collective, we hope that this visual experience will urge viewers to consider their own digital entanglements on and offline.”
