How has digital technology changed our perception of reality? 
This question has fueled the work of Madrid artist, writer, 
and curator Daniel Canogar for the last two decades. In the 
late nineties, he developed a multi-projection system using 
fiber optic cables. Eliminating the photographic frame, these 
immersive photo-installations cast the viewer as a moving 
screen that covers and uncovers images. These work also call 
on our age-old fascination with magic and illusionism, while 
updating the notion of the technological phantom. Ultimately, 
Canogar submerges us into the image to investigate how 
identity is altered by the space of the spectacle.

Daniel Canogar’s work has been widely exhibited throughout 
Europe and the Americas where it is found in many important 
collections. He has also written extensively on the 
architecture of the image, contemporary photography, and new 
media art. Canogar is currently artistic director of VIDA, an 
annual international competition sponsored by the Fundación 
Telefónica, showcasing work that investigates the intersection 
of art and artificial intelligence.
