The main exhibition of the IMPAKT Festival 2023 presents work by renowned and emerging international artists. It includes commissions and projects resulting from residencies supported by the European Media Art Platform, a residency programme of which IMPAKT is a member.
The playful, speculative and subversive works in this exhibition address what we see as the most important issues affecting our digital rights and agency: surveillance, data-extraction, Big Tech strategies, the amplification of human bias, and our future with artificial intelligence. We selected these works for their inspiring or provocative content and the way they use humour and the element of surprise. They also raise awareness and inform us about what is at stake in a world permeated by digital technology.
