Matèria is thrilled to unveil OVERTON WINDOW as the latest addition to its street-facing Vitrine program. The curated series of small shows aims to cast a spotlight on digital and on-chain art and is developed in collaboration with Re:humanism; the pioneering platform led by Daniela Cotimbo, dedicated to the exploration of the intricate relationship between humanistic and scientific cultures with a special emphasis on the advancements in artificial intelligence research.

 OVERTON WINDOW sets out to explore the possibilities stemming from our rapidly evolving symbiotic relationship with technology. The project seeks to champion artists and concepts that illuminate the intersection of art and technology, with the overarching goal to harness the disruptive potential of AI and blockchain technologies, paving the way for new artistic production models. Additionally, OVERTON WINDOW serves as a catalyst for reimagining cultural production, markets and ownership models by providing artists with a platform and a support structure to experiment with the evolving technological landscape.

 Presented in curated installments, OVERTON WINDOW features an open ended dialogue between the public and a selection of local and international artists.

 The common thread of the project is embodied by the concept of new digital mythologies, a theme that encloses various manifestations of our relationship with the contemporary. If Chatbots, avatars, and voice assistants become new idols, digital simulacra embodying new forms of animism, renewed forms of digital ritual embrace diverse perspectives and suggest new narratives.
