Duke Albada
I focus on interdisciplinary media installations and site-specific public art, which at times includes an interactive component. I strive to create artworks of a high artistic and conceptual standard. My practice focuses on the effective presentation of challenging contemporary art issues to a broad viewing public. Projects have ranged from permanent outdoor & indoor installations to ephemeral and time-based artworks. The medium is always project specific and responds to extensive research & development often involving new technologies & social science.
