What does it mean to live together in digitally mediated isolation? Recent Changes considers the potential of the internet as a public space for community gathering, while widening our understanding of ‘community’. As communicative operations move online, the entrenchment of disciplinary capitalist politics within these spaces becomes increasingly apparent. This project considers the ways we can circumvent the individualizing, commodifying qualities of our online spaces to explore otherwise positive forms of relationality, intimacy and solidarity.

Recent Changes is an online project consisting of artists Oscar Alfonso, Simon Fuh, Matt Nish-Lapidus, Sophia Oppel and Hearth - a new artist-run space in Toronto, co-directed by Benjamin de Boer, Rowan Lynch, Sameen Mahboubi and Philip Leonard Ocampo.
