Digital
ARC’s digital programme focuses on documenting and amplifying artists’ journeys through accessible and inclusive platforms. This includes the development of digital archives, artist portfolios, and the collection of both digital and in-person audience feedback, such as exhibition responses, experiential evaluations, and embedded web forms.
Digital marketing and live events further support the promotion of artists’ work through exhibitions, artist reflections, and a professional film that captures ARC’s impact. Experiential evaluation methods prioritise sensory, visual, and participant-led feedback, while a digital archive and film output share ARC’s model and best practice across the sector.
Recognising that many digital platforms present accessibility barriers, ARC is implementing inclusive solutions such as NEO archiving tools, enabling artists to document their creative journeys in personalised and accessible ways. A dedicated digital portfolio system supports artists to showcase their work to national and international audiences.
In collaboration with Coventry MA students, ARC is also exploring emerging technologies—including Augmented Reality (AR), Mixed Reality (MR), and Virtual Reality (VR)—to expand access and engagement. This work will create a virtual archive of past exhibitions, workshops, and residencies, alongside immersive, interactive experiences that centre artists’ lived experiences.
Together, these approaches aim to extend access to art beyond physical spaces, increase the visibility of disabled artists, and use technology to create new, inclusive ways to make, share, and experience creative work.
