“Digital Graffiti, over a short period of time, has become irrevocably linked to Alys Beach,” says Town Architect Marieanne Khoury-Vogt. “Watching our beautiful, stark, white washed walls and roofs become completely transformed by the colorful and evocative swirling piecesof digital art is truly an inspiring experience. The projected vivid images that mold and melt against the backdrop of our sculptural architecture is fascinating to observe. One can meander through thepaths and parks of our town and contemplate all of the differentpieces of digital graffiti, at times set to music, and at times powerfully silent.”
Anadditional evening at this year's festival includes an open air Salon,where artists are available to discuss their work with guests.During the festival weekend, various art workshops, hosted by Alys Beachin conjunction with the Cultural Arts Alliance, are available for all to attend.
