ACVA Lab is a forward thinking initiative to promote the pioneering work of Australian artists and technologists using virtual world platforms. ACVA Lab advances the development of artistic networks, prototypes and exchange with its central question: “What could a virtual art lab be if it was imagined by artists for artists?”
ACVA Lab provides insights into the future directions of arts practice and a window into a virtual arts lab. The team directing the ACVA Lab initiative believe the future of virtual reality is not a singular environment, but a rich network of digital practice as diverse as that found in the physical realm. In this light ACVA Lab is best considered a context from which a new network of artists will emerge, aided by the ACVA Lab workshop, in-world virtual sessions and a collective web presence.
ACVA Lab, supported by Australia Council for the Arts, has a broad mandate to connect established and emerging artists from around Australia through this initiative, and also an open invitation for curators, educators, and the next generation of artists to be involved in shaping the future of virtual art.
