Digital Media Gallery · PS/NExT Summit 26

Hybrid Worlds

PS/NExT Summit ’26 will present HYBRID WORLDS, our Digital Media Gallery exhibition curated by artist and director of THE ELEMENTAL Cristopher Cichocki. On view during the Summit, the LED media wall exhibition brings together seven international artists whose video works draw from the natural world — and return with something else entirely. The works gathered in HYBRID WORLDS occupy a charged threshold: between ecological fact and dreamscape, between the visible and the felt, amidst analog process and technological transformation.

HYBRID WORLDS will be on view throughout the Summit featuring video works by:

Jeff Frost, Alexia Saigh, Cristopher Cichocki, Robert Seidel, Cameron Gainer, Glen Wexler and Reine Paradis
