NYCxDESIGN is guided by core values of community, creativity, inclusivity, diversity, and sustainable design for the greater good. Beyond our annual Festival, our year-round programming provides a platform for NYC’s diverse design talent, from students and emerging designers to seasoned professionals. Each program fosters connection, education, and inspiration, empowering the next generation to use design as a powerful tool for positive impact and addressing the world’s most pressing needs.
Fractured Horizons invites you to explore tensions between cultural heritage and technological futures through a groundbreaking hybrid exhibition at PI Art Center. This multidisciplinary showcase examines the interplay between civilizational remnants and emerging post-human landscapes, offering fresh perspectives on heritage and innovation.
The exhibition brings together diverse creative disciplines to interrogate how we understand our evolving environment. Featured artists challenge anthropocentric narratives by examining industrial ruins and urban decay as complex environments shaped by intersecting forces, exploring how AI, automation, and ecological systems might forge new spatial realities.
