Foundation – a Web3 Media Art Festival

Noting the new era of digital culture and the internet that we have entered with the emergence of Web3, Videotage’s “Foundation – a Web3 Media Art Festival” aims to prepare a new generation of artists for the evolving digital space. Through three commissions and 12 works from international artists, the gallery invites viewers of this virtual exhibition (co-curated by Kyle Chung, Angel Leung, and Lisa Park SoYoung) to join in an exploration of the creative possibilities of Web3 from the perspectives of decentralization, humanized AI, and extended realities (XR). Of the fifteen featured artists, the exhibition includes a commission by Chloë Cheuk (with digital development by Liu Chang), surrounding the correlation between exam-oriented education and school bullying, a digital-sculptural hybrid encompassing a holographic character by Elena Knox titled The Masters, Balon Bacon Ijo’s look at the climate crisis, and more.
