Agora Virtual Reality Exhibitions

Why does Agora focus on virtual reality?

Agora totally agrees with Margaret Dolinsky, pioneer interactive artist, who defined VR as “the first redefinition of perspective since the Renaissance” because virtual reality offers seemingly unlimited artistic possibilities worth exploring.

Agora Digital Art’s objective is to produce the best VR exhibitions, showcasing self-identified women working at the interstice of New Media Art and VR technology.

Desiring-Machines

Opening: 1 June – 15 October 2023

The unconscious, the illogical, the irrational – what is it about dreams and their uncanny nature that drives us towards conjuring fantastical explanations and mystical reports on their meanings? The depths of the internet have become a repository for dreams, hopes, irrational thoughts and vents – but are we asleep or awake? Sleepwalking or stationary? Is this a dream or a nightmare?
