Experimenta Emergence

Experimenta Emergence

Experimenta Emergence presents the work of contemporary artists who explore emerging societal and environmental changes and offer other perspectives, imagined possibilities and directions.

At a time when the unknown and maybe the unknowable is building like a wave, these artists encourage us toquestion our shifting realities. What are the forces shaping our worlds? How might we encounter, counter or adapt to the transformations of the human and more-than-human world we are part of? Can we alter current trajectories?

The art works these Australian and international artists have created – virtual realities, participatory works, and speculative fictions – will provoke you to ask questions about where we, individually and collectively, are going … and where we might want to go.

Touring Australia 2025-2027, the exhibition will be accompanied by a rich public program delving into emergent ideas, research, and discourse traversing art, science, technology, and society.
