Lab Test

An annual cultural art activation in the form of an experiential show. Artists exhibit and create multi-scale, multi-sensory installations, challenging conventional assumptions and exploring the interconnections among the built environment, creative technologies, and the artists' own works.

Installations vary from fully completed works to concepts that bring visitors behind the curtain to view the process. This exhibition meshes medium and industry, combining fine art, architecture, and new media.

  • The month-long used the space as art residency in which several artists created unique works they had never tried before.

  • Each Lab Test showcases contemporary, emerging, and modern artists work encouraging the community to experience the distinct perspectives of each artist.

  • Over the month we changed an old unused space and city block into a cultural scene which hosted over 4 events and activations.
