Metamo announces ‘Digital g-o-d’ art exhibition in Amsterdam

Metamo is presenting Digital G-O-Dat Vrij Paleis from 20 to 29 June, a visionary fusion of art and printing technology explored through the works of 20 urban artists including Antz, Collin van der Sluijs , Frankey, Humanoise, Mossy Giant, and Zedz, to name a few.

This is the exhibition’s second edition after debuting in Singapore’s UltraSuperNew Gallery in 2020, maintaining the core value of collaborating with local communities to explore knowledge and connections. The exhibition is supported by Mimaki and made possible through alignment and partnership with Chinny Bond (curatorial) and Mama Magnet (storytelling).

The group exhibition brings a lot of different art styles under one roof, hoping to service a reminder that our evolution depends on encounters outside of our own comfort zone.

Metamo is a collective of professionals, whose expertise spans the uppermost echelons of the creative industries, including high end visual effects, digital artistry, immersive media, and audio production. The collective aspires to be an all encompassing communal platform, nurturing artistic and creative endeavours globally.

Employing cutting edge digital technologies such as 3DCG, 2D UV printing, 3D printing, digital plotting and photogrammetry as the virtual ‘brush’, the artists create a dynamic atmosphere for audiences to encounter rising technological advancements, while also offering a critical lens towards the value of creation and autonomy in an increasingly homogenised and automated world.

The exhibition features 30 intricately crafted 3D printed works, conceptualised and designed by participating artists.  Complementing these are 27 innovative 2D print works that push the boundaries of contemporary printing technologies through a refined artistic lens. These pieces employ a range of advanced techniques – including UV printing, sublimation, and digital plotters – on diverse and visually striking materials such as acrylic, canvas, and holographic paper, offering a bold exploration of surface, texture, and dimension.
