The Australian Centre of Virtual Art (ACVA) has received funding from the Australia Council for the Arts to design and run a series of experimental spaces for Australian artists interested in extending their practice into the virtual domain.
This twelve-month project will canvas the Australian art scene for people working in virtual environments, conduct a call-out for those interested in participating in a series of creative labs, and develop a series of prototype virtual spaces for selected artists to work in. Ongoing experimentation, creation and review will be conducted over the course of the project, with outcomes exhibited across a range of mediums.
The Lab is a cross-artform, multi-practice initiative – including dance, community arts, Indigenous arts, interdisciplinary arts, literature, music, sound art, theatre and visual arts and will involve a range of experienced and emerging practitioners in this field.
