Representative graduation works have been selected from new media faculties of fine arts academies across Poland. 

New media encompass a diverse range of genres, constructing artworks that engage with phenomena and tools stemming from the advancements in technology, communication, and imaging.

“The 10th edition of the exhibition, this year themed "Threshold," encapsulates the latest artworks as a space for reflection, a point of departure, and a realm of transgression, confrontation, and tension between realms. The term "threshold" also symbolizes the transition into artistic adulthood, signifying the departure from the confines of the academy, fostering self-reflection, and shaping one's artistic identity.” – says curator of the exhibition, Gosia Wrzosek. 

In this edition of the Competition, the works on display will include impression installations, video games and installations, 3d animations, publications, sculptural objects, and performative actions. Creative and critical insights will be found in the multifaceted actions and installations, both drawing on natural elements and using artificial intelligence. The diversity highlights the growing importance of media tools within contemporary art and their role in shaping reflections on the present.
