Matt Sheridan is an animation video artist. His award-winning work has screened in the USA, UK, Brazil, Iran, the Netherlands and France via broadcast, festivals and installations in venues from Centre Pompidou in Paris to the Centro Cultural Banco do Brasil in Rio de Janeiro; the Rio Video Wall in Atlanta and the Santa Monica Pier in California. A recipient of an MFA in Fine Art from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California, Matt currently teaches graduate Animation in Singapore.
Paviter Singh is a graduate from LASALLE College of the Arts, with a major in Interactive Art. He has constantly looked to traditional as well as technological forms of art as expression. Having previously come from a technological background, the merger of the technical field with the art realm has produced exciting and unexpected results. Paviter’s primary body of work focuses on environmental sound, generative sound and spatial acoustics. Always pushing the visual and aural boundaries, he has created works of art which are both visually as well as aurally inclined. Always looking into communication and miscommunication, Paviter looks to explore silence, sound and aural experiences in our environment.
Upgrade! Singapore series is presented in conjunction with the Interactive Art Pathway and the Media Lab at LASALLE College of the Art. For more information, visit http://banhomaria.net/upgrade/
