Synopsis

Affective Architecture is a group exhibition showcasing Singaporean and international new media artists working with immersive environments, including Virtual Reality, Expanded Cinema, and Games. Debuting at Singapore Art Week 2025, the works explore how imagination, space, and immersion influence our perceptions of the world and complex global issues. The artists address diverse themes such as ecology, history, technology, society, and personal memory, yet all share a common goal: to evoke an awareness of the interconnectedness of our world through the digital realms they create.
