Utilizing a range of digital tools, The Phillips Collection Library and Archives is embarking on an initiative to expand access to our exhibitions, permanent collection, and institutional history. Our tour will offer a brief overview of the Library and Archives physical collections before exploring one of our newest digital assets: a virtual gallery of imPRESSED: Emerging Artists in Ink, an exhibition of student artwork inspired by the special exhibition Timeless Mucha: The Magic of Line. The student exhibition’s digital twin, created with Matterport and Treedis, is incorporated with student narratives, photographs, lesson plans, and interactive elements to further showcase the young artists’ exploration into their own artistic processes. Intended to live in perpetuity, virtual galleries of community exhibitions at The Phillips Collection present a new avenue for the Library and Archives to collect and highlight the stories of non-traditional and emerging artists.
