Transformer is thrilled to present Interactive Echo Chamber, a multi-media exhibition by DC based multi-disciplinary artist Ashley Jaye Williams (they/them). This installation stages a lived experiment in participation and consent within the attention economy. Visitors first encounter a clearly lit, curved painted surface that reads like a conventional artwork. A timed audio cue and projection sequence then transforms that field into a moving, expanding image that spills into the gallery, shifting the viewer from observer to participant. The work weaves together Plato's cave, Foucault's panopticon, and the algorithmic logic of TikTok's FYP to examine how media shapes perception and behavior. By foregrounding the mechanics of projection, capture, and amplification, the piece asks a single urgent question: what changes when you become the same machine that keeps you imprisoned? The result is a space that invites both embodied discomfort and critical reflection.

Join us for the Visionary Leaders Circle Preview of Interactive Echo Chamber from 5 — 7 PM.
