from the gallery website:
\n“NIGHT GALLERY is pleased to present ‘SCREEN TIME’, an exhibition of new work by LUKE MURPHY & CHRISTINE WANG. Both artists address the screen<\/strong> as a digital intermediary for experience. Though it’s trajectory began long ago, the screen’s total<\/strong> encroachment upon daily life reached new heights in 2020 becoming the primary<\/strong> tool of community engagement, creative exploration, and consumer activity in response to long-term shelter-in-place restrictions ..” (Covid)<\/p>\n
