Artist and art pedagogue Petra Pětiletá is a host of artist-in-residency programme Magic Carpets in Prague. While still a student of the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague, she was intrigued by various social phenomena, and so her art has often focused on exploring and mapping them. As part of her recent post-graduate studies at the Department of Art Education of Charles University’s Pedagogic Faculty, she is exploring digital fields, current technologies in relation to art and the interfaces between the virtual and physical realities which she believes no longer work separately. Her principal premise is that following diverse visual information and the specific navigation in digital space on an everyday basis are becoming an integral part of current children’s life and the way they experience it in the globalised culture.
