Digital Decade SE 2020: VR Exhibition

With no doubts, 2020 is a total game changer. Digital officially becomes a part of our life in all possible ways and words “Internet”, “IoT”, “Online” does not make any sense now. It is life in all its beauty, pixels and germs..

During Digital Decade 2020 we hand-picked several artists and asked them to come up with visual representations of post-2020, post-isolation and post-identity. From today this set of artworks is available for collecting on Sedition Art Platform. The platform is dedicated to collecting digital art limited copies that you can enjoy as a part of your digital life, on a laptop, mobile or even wall frame TV.

This release is accompanied by VR/3D Gallery that you can access anytime and enjoy the atmosphere of a late night party (thanks to Ben Paul for the music mixtape). The exhibition features works by Krista Kim, Aristarkh Chernyshev, Eliška Sky, Azamat Akhmadbaev, Joëlle Snaith, Dimitri Daniloff and Grégoire A. Meyer.

For the latest iteration, held online due to the COVID-19 pandemic, artists have creative speculative and critical comments on how phygital life may change post-pandemic.

“Now it feels like your digital self is more important then the reality. Most of us spend the majority of the day checking our phones and laptops and this digital experience will get even more immersive with future developments of augmented and virtual reality. We’ve also seen the creation of robot Sophia by Hanson Robotics in 2015 – [the] first AI with more than 50 facial expressions – and the ability of recognising faces thanks to the computer algorithms. This connection to digital reality and modern progress was a big inspiration for me.”
