Description

Invisible Flock are an award-winning interactive arts studio based at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park operating at the intersection of art and technology. They are artist led. Their studio is a sustainable laboratory space hosting them, theirr collaborators and a rolling residency programme. They create highly sensory installations and environments asking us to renegotiate our emotional relationship to the natural world.

Their work explores the environmental crisis in all its forms. They dedicate their time to exploring this most important issue of our time and how digital art practices can offer new perspectives and practical solutions and engage with those often excluded from these conversations. They infiltrate many sectors aiming to have a creative impact on ecology, politics, health and society and to expose wherever possible that everything is fluid and can be rebuilt and reconfigured to be better. Over the last eleven years they have created GPS powered AR art games, transformed discarded beach plastic into 3D printed artworks, co-designed work with individuals living with dementia, created large ambisonic public sound installations as well as pioneering digital/physical installations that exist out at sea.


Residencies are a core part of their practice at Invisible Flock. Their studio at the Yorkshire Sculpture park comes fully equipped with a workshop, tech lab and space to create. They firmly believe in building a creative space for collaboration, development and space for failure as a crucial part of working with art and technology. Under the 3 year project, The Cost of Innovation, they are able to offer the opportunity to invite artists to join them in investigating models and tools for innovation in the sector. This is a rolling programme, while they seek further international and national opportunities alongside this.
