The 12th edition of the Patchlab Digital Art Festival explores the captivating theme of SPACE/S. Space is a fundamental philosophical concept that encompasses all the relationships among objects, events, and us, people. It is one of the two vectors of our lives, apart from time, which we can influence by creating a social, cultural and artistic space.
Space/s is a story about spaces, unlimited possibilities, in which we get to know the “micro” and “macro” elements that build what is un/discovered. The space that interacts with the viewer presents its range of beauty, roughness, and sometimes mystery.
