WAYNE J COSSHALL
Assistant Director IDAA/CO-Director New Media
Editor,Writer, Co-Founder Digital Art Association Australia
The 2004 IDAA represents a significant stage in the IDAA's development. Firstly,
the incorporation of a good body of work in the IDAA New Media section nicely
compliments and contrasts with the IDAA Still Image section. Since contemporary
digital art practice covers both areas, it not only makes the IDAA a more
representational living documentation of the state of digital art practice
in 2004, but also allows viewers to make their own, interesting connections
between the two. The IDAA Still Image section raises the quality bar yet again
and is the strongest IDAA yet from a fine art perspective. It heartens me
that, yet again, all areas of digital still image art practice are represented
and you will find examples of the best digital art in each category and style.
It shows that no one area of digital practice, such as 3D, has become the
dominant voice of digital still image. This diversity of approach is the strength
of digital art practice and provides a rich ground for cross-fertilization
and the continuing development of digital art. My thanks to everyone who entered
and my congratulations to everyone accepted to the list of finalists. You
can rightly feel that your work has been judged against some of the best digital
art internationally, and been found comparable.
