Explore Digital-Age Nostalgia at dreamedcore

Description

As the second exhibition at GOLD by Serakai Studio, dreamedcore presents a multisensory exploration of digital-age nostalgia, bringing together artists, designers, fashion labels and creative studios from across Asia.

Combining the formats of an art exhibition, concept store and runway show, the exhibition features 22 emerging multidisciplinary artists and creative practitioners. Together, they explore how a new generation is reimagining visual culture and constructing dreamlike worlds from internet nostalgia and hazy atmospheric tones.

The exhibition unfolds in two parts. “Chapter 1: The Lure” draws visitors into the soft familiarity of dreamcore aesthetics, with fluid lamps, surreal furniture and works by artists such as Li Shuang evoking hazy internet-era memories. “Chapter 2: The Twist”, meanwhile, shifts towards the uncanny, delving into nostalgia, kitsch and subtle unease through works by random clichés and glass-and-screen sculptures by Peng Ke, revealing a past that feels deeply personal yet has never truly existed.

Centred around a runway stage, the exhibition is immersed in ambient lighting and surrounded by artworks, design objects and mannequins. A mini cinema screening a video work by artist Wong Ping further invites visitors to slow down and linger.

dreamedcore is open from Wednesday to Saturday, 12:00–18:00, and is closed on public holidays. Alongside the exhibition, there will be a talk with artists and curators on 6 June at 16:00, a fashion show and performance on 19 June at 20:00, as well as a Studio Sessions on 27 June and 25 July.
