In a cool example of how the internet continues to infiltrate our lives, Hauser Online are hosting an online exhibition by Aaron McElroy titled ‘After Wake’, allowing viewers to interact with the art 24/7. The exhibition features dreamlike images, captured from McElroy’s real life interactions with anonymous female subjects, nature and random artefacts.

The artwork on offer provides a look into a stream of consciousness, true to life in the way they appear to go from one tangent of thought to another, further highlighted in the manner that they are displayed. The effect of this, is an exhibition which allows viewers to use their own imagination, adding their own meanings to what the images mean.
