CALDERA
2025 EDAA Virtual Exhibition

Caldera features the five winning artworks of the 2025 EDAA as part of the MacKenzie Art Gallery’s experimental virtual exhibition series. This year’s cohort of emerging artists engage with themes of yearning, memory, and dislocation to envision speculative futures that resist contemporary political trajectories. Through digitally-rendered objects, game design, photogrammetry, and immersive reality techniques, they create environments that help us envision our precarious present as a site of potential and possibility.

About the EDAA

The Emerging Digital Artists Award (EDAA) is Canada’s first digital art award designed to foster experimentation in the work of emerging artists and create opportunities for those working in digital media. Resisting the notion that screen time lacks space for critical engagement, the EDAA champions a new generation of digital creators who challenge us to see the world through a different screen.
