Pratt Manhattan Gallery\u2019s new exhibition, Beyond Digital: Living Systems & Distributed Intelligence<\/a>, is a group show featuring work by seven artists from Pratt Institute\u2019s Digital Arts alumni community. Curated by artist, curator, and co-founder and director of BioBAT Art Space Elena Soterakis, this exhibition brings together artists whose work explores the increasingly blurred boundaries between technology, biology, and the environments we inhabit.\u00a0<\/p>\n

At a moment when artificial intelligence, environmental instability, and digital systems are reshaping everyday life, Beyond Digital considers how technology is no longer separate from the natural world, but deeply embedded within living systems. Through interactive installations, experimental media, and interdisciplinary practices, the participating artists invite viewers to consider intelligence as something distributed across bodies, machines, and ecosystems.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Drawing from fields including engineering, ecology, cosmology, and critical theory, the works on view challenge traditional distinctions between the digital and physical, the natural and artificial. Rather than offering static objects or fixed meanings, many of the works evolve through participation, duration, and changing relationships between viewers and their surroundings.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cBeyond Digital highlights the innovative and interdisciplinary approaches emerging from Pratt\u2019s Digital Arts alumni community,\u201d said Soterakis. \u201cThese artists are asking urgent questions about how we coexist with technologies that increasingly shape the ways we experience the world.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

The full list of participating artists includes Tess Adams, Nicol\u00e1s Cuestas, Nate King, Caroline Voagen Nelson, Taezoo Park, Karolina Rojas, and Ruyin Tsai & Jung-Shang Chang.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Beyond Digital: Living Systems & Distributed Intelligence<\/a> is on view at Pratt Manhattan Gallery from June 26 through September 5, 2026. There will be a public reception on Thursday, June 25. Pratt Manhattan Gallery is free and open to the public. <\/p>\n
