Neo Glitch City explores (expanded) painting and video game design. While video games can seem utopian, they often carry the same othering normative violence, that others anyone who does not fit one specific niche, which is usually white, straight and cis-gendered. Within this exhibition, I explore the potential of the glitch as a space of escape. Taking cues from queer theorists like Judith Butler and Judith Halberstram, I aim to create a fun videogame arcade/art exhibition environment that encourages casual conversation about queerness, representation, the glitch and escapism without the intimidation of queer academics.
A collection of digital paintings and a video game.
