Synopsis
Reworlding brings together seven Asian female media artists who treat virtuality, technology, and digital systems not as glossy, seamless futures, but as worlds that must be continually rebuilt, patched, mourned, or misused.
Across sound, sculpture, games, video, and virtual reality, the works in this group exhibition pry open technological shells, revealing AI voices that collapse under pressure, avatars turned inside out, machines that demand care, infrastructures haunted by superstition, and virtual cities populated by those left behind.
Curated by Debbie Ding, Reworlding attends to the unseen labour, rituals, failures, and forms of care that sustain these virtual worlds. Together, the works ask what it means to live with technologies after their sales pitches and promises have frayed, and how these alternative worlds are energised through repair, parody, superstition, and drift.
Artists:
00 Zhang, Shan Wong (Flyingpig), Line of Piers, Jo Ho, Priyageetha Dia, Debbie Ding

This dialogue invites collective reflection on how contemporary technologies mediate the understanding of our bodies. The programme concludes with an informal interactive experience related to the work, designed for one participant at a time, with the live experience simultaneously projected for others to watch.
Content advisory: This programme contains medical imagery, including surgical documentation, as well as amplified bodily and food-related sounds, which may be unsettling for some viewers.
