Join to.gather for the opportunity to explore a unique, contemporary digital space.
With the look and feel of a retro computer game, to.gather is a collaboration between Rooftop Productions (Hong Kong) and Sydenham Arts (UK), who brought together young, multidisciplinary artists from diverse backgrounds to produce a new online virtual platform full of their original creations for SPARK festival in October 2021.
The young artists aged 18-25 from London and Hong Kong were paired as creative ‘pen pals’ in advance of SPARK, exploring themes of diversity and inclusion, injecting their experiences and stories into the virtual environment. Content created range from poetry to illustration, music and multimedia work.
By connecting the gaming, artistic and other creative spheres, to.gather provides a platform for young people to connect and spearhead the development of their own contemporary digital culture.
Although SPARK concluded on 23 October 2021, the to.gather platform remains available to explore on a request-only basis. If you are interested to explore the platform, please contact us at SPARK@britishcouncil.org.hk - we will be in touch to arrange post-event access.
