Wednesday January 25, 2012 6:00 PM
Reinsch-Pierce Family Auditorium
Danielle Roney is an artist working with hybridization, immersive environments and interactive media architecture in the context of global identity structures. Currently, her focus is on transnational spatial narratives and the migrant human condition through interactive architectural façade. Roney’s work stems from her study of sculpture and digital media at the University of Georgia and from holding studios in locations like Los Angeles and Beijing. Her project, Global Portals, presented concepts in transnational, networked public spaces at TEDGlobal 2005, with subsequent live interactions from Johannesburg, South Africa to Atlanta in 2007. Her recent project, Opposing Views, was presented at the International Symposium of Electronic Arts Istanbul 2011, in conjunction with the Istanbul 12th Biennale and explored the visualization of conflict through biofeedback sensors and the interactive media façade of the Museum of Contemporary Art, Zagreb. Locally, Roney provides consultation in public art master planning and cultural strategic planning and is currently on the design team for the Atlanta Beltline.
Her work has been reviewed in Art in America and Art Papers Magazine, recognized in Art and Auction and Contemporary Magazine, London and is featured in the recent publication, Noplaceness: Art in a Post-Urban Landscape. She has received numerous grants including the Museum of Contemporary Art, Georgia, Sony Electronics and the National Endowment of the Arts and awards from the Loridans Foundation.
