Theme: Neither Utopia Nor Dystopia

At SIGGRAPH Asia 2024 in Tokyo, the Art Gallery seeks to present groundbreaking and impactful creations that intersect art, science, technology, society, and the environment. In an era of information saturation, where the essence and veracity of matters may blur, we champion concrete expressions to reaffirm our reality, moving beyond mere idealism.
The theme “Neither Utopia Nor Dystopia” eschews the stark dichotomy often portrayed between utopian and dystopian extremes, crafting a realm for patient engagement with the manifold aspects of reality and fostering the gradual maturation of values. This thematic direction nudges artists to uncover the subtle allure, intricacy, and profundity inherent in our day-to-day lives, urging them to craft palpable visions.
Through the distinctive lenses of artists, we aspire to recalibrate our perception of the interplay between society, the environment, and technology, thereby enriching our collective comprehension. We envisage a tapestry of works that, at times, unveil hidden truths and beauties, and at other times, navigate the intricate web of emotions and relationships, culminating in a corporeal portrayal of our world. In alignment with these themes, the SIGGRAPH Asia 2024 Art Gallery casts a wide net, eagerly soliciting a spectrum of artistic endeavors, spanning artworks, projects, performances, platforms, and communities.
Join us at the SIGGRAPH Asia 2024 Art Gallery in Tokyo, Japan, as we question, explore, and engage with the intricate and multifaceted realities of our times.
