Interactive Art and Audience Participation: Redefining the Boundaries Between Artist and Viewer

Abstract

The changing connection between artist and viewer seen through the lens of interactive art, a form that allows viewers to take part and changes the usual limits of artistic involvement. Interactive art, on the other hand, depends on the user being involved, which makes them a co-creator of the art experience. how performance art, interactive installations, and digital media blur the lines between creator and observer, making the audience less of a passive listener and more of an active participant. The paper looks at important interactive works of art from different types of media to show how these practices involve viewers in changing, multisensory experiences that question standard ideas of authorship, control, and interpretation. This study also looks at how technology has changed interactive art, focusing on how digital tools, virtual reality, and artificial intelligence are making it easier for people to connect with art. In the end, this study helps us understand how interactive art is changing the art world by encouraging people to work together and changing the roles of both the artist and the watcher.
