One of the defining characteristics of digital art is its capacity to extend traditional exhibition frameworks, enabling access, learning and cultural exchange beyond spatial, temporal and generational boundaries. This approach underpins the exhibitions presented by Houda Bakkali in Alliance Française New Delhi and Alliance Française Hyderabad.
Both exhibitions adopt a hybrid exhibition model that combines physical artworks with virtual formats. Through the use of augmented reality, visitors can access immersive layers of the works, expanding the interpretative experience beyond the limits of the physical exhibition space.
The projects include augmented reality artworks and a virtual gallery, complemented by an educational vision focused on digital art practices and emerging technologies. This framework provides an accessible and structured introduction to contemporary digital creation and its applications within artistic and cultural contexts.
Together, these exhibitions illustrate how digital art can facilitate connections between diverse audiences, support cultural exchange and function as a tool for mediation and education, positioning contemporary artistic practice within an international and interdisciplinary framework.
