New Utopias in the Digital Age
2025.10.11 > 2026.01.11
as part of Némo – International Biennial of Digital Arts of the Île-de-France Region
In a world transformed by digital technologies, illusion emerges as a critical, speculative, and poetic tool. By intertwining artificial intelligence, regenerated nature, and optimistic science fiction, the exhibition explores—through around thirty works—both old and new utopias.
Opening day on Saturday, October 11
2:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.: Exhibition and immersive experiences (free admission)
7:30 p.m. to midnight: Evening of audiovisual performances (free with reservation)

Immersive paintings whose characters begin to sing, voices that morph into landscapes, plants that generate images, and fictions that resurrect the past while visualizing the future… Each work presented pushes the boundaries of perception and reality, unveiling alternate worlds where humans coexist with nature and machines.
Between science and myth, memory and data, the artists explore our relationship with the living, with technology, and with imagination. Here, utopias are no longer futuristic promises, but hybrid spaces, oscillating between nostalgia and speculation. They are illusions we believed lost, now revealed by the digital realm, in another world, our own!

Opening of the exhibition Illusions Rediscovered
In a world revolutionized by digital technology, illusion can take on a critical, speculative and poetic role. The thirty-some works in this exhibition explore utopias old and new, weaving together artificial intelligence, regenerated nature, and positive science fiction.

Mixed-reality opera We Who Live Under Heaven by The Performance Corporation
Adventurers in the world of immersive technologies, The Performance Corporation is a creative company that fuses opera, electronic music, theater, and mixed reality. The focal point of the experience is the mournful song of a being held in captivity – composed by Roger Doyle, the father of electroacoustic music in Ireland, and performed by countertenor Morgan Crowley – which invites audiences to imagine a world where connection transcends difference.

Installation immersive Flock Of de Bit.studio
