ABSTRACT

This paper demonstrates Invisible, a critical digital artwork as performance in a conceptual framework derived from performance studies. Invisible exemplifies how digital art can reflect and influence critical thinking by focusing on three key features of performance studies: constitutive, epistemic, and critical. This intersects with Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) in a digital art context, which addresses inspirational roles of digital art.
