Playgrounds

Playgrounds is an innovative connector between makers, talents and creative industry and stimulates new developments in themoving images industry, within an international, accessible and hybrid/trans-disciplinary context. We strive to create a solid base for artists. We stimulate the production of digital arts in various forms (animations, illustrations, films, games, interactive). Our goals are: to create a stage for local, regional and (inter)national cutting-edge innovative works within the audio visual, moving and graphic design industry and everything else that is directly or indirectly connected to them to expand and further connect several (inter)national networks within the art-world and creative industry to share development and production knowledge relevant for the creative industry; through our research programs we are active in the fields of research & development of the visual culture to look actively for and program creators pushing boundaries of audio-visual environments; to share inspiring projects and to reach various creators through our curatorial series and online platform to promote collaborations between Brabant institutions, producers and makers with existing (inter)national institutions and makers within the creative field; in the same time generating new exhibitions and workshops opportunities that contribute to the aforementioned objectives of Playgrounds to create new opportunities for the young generations of makers by allowing them to come into contact with (inter) national role models at an early age; we believe their still unexplored visual talent will surface and generate an even more diverse creative community within the Netherlands.
