Digital Art and Its Voice at Art Dubai 2025

Art on 56th, Viktoria Kova

At this year’s Art Dubai, the Digital section no longer felt like an experiment on the sidelines — it spoke as a language of its own. Under the curatorship of Gonzalo Herrero Delicado, the exhibition unfolded under the title After the Technological Sublime, offering a nuanced meditation on how innovation can both illuminate and unsettle.

TAEX, Krista Kim

Gone were the days of digital as spectacle. What emerged instead was a contemplative space, where virtual realities, quantum aesthetics, and AI-generated engines became tools not of detachment, but of deep storytelling.

Now in its fourth edition, Art Dubai Digital gathered a network of pioneering artists, platforms, and collectives — including BREAKFAST Studio, Sevil Dolmaci, TAEX, GAZELL.iO, Immaterika, Koshta.collective, Art on 56th and Monada Art Gallery. Rather than fetishizing newness, the works interrogated data sovereignty, post-human futures, and the politics of perception. Digital is not treated as medium but as terrain — one charged with memory, code, and complexity.
