Data Through Design is an independent collective that organizes an annual data art exhibition featuring works that creatively analyze, interpret, and interrogate data made available in NYC’s Open Data Portal, a valuable civic resource aimed at increasing information access and transparency.

The exhibition opening was a highlight of the New York City Mayor’s Office of Data Analytics and BetaNYC’s Open Data Week.

Each year, a different theme is developed to challenge artists to surface hidden stories, patterns, and connections in data, while examining the shortcomings of this data and question its claims to objectivity.

These novel and artistic creations harness the potential for data to enliven and deepen our understanding of life in the city and explore its limitations.

These interpretations remind us that, while data may be seen as a cold, abstract approximation of the world as it is experienced in real life, gathering and interpreting the numbers remains a deeply human endeavor.
