At a time when many art galleries have closed their doors, Berlin鈥檚 K枚nig Galerie has released an app that allows you to experience an exhibition like never before. German artist Manuel Rossner tells Tina about his project Surprisingly This Rather Works and the infinite artistic possibilities of the virtual world.

We head to South Africa for a house party with a difference and discover how a new pop culture phenomenon is bringing parties directly to the homes of music lovers during lockdown.

Can you put on a fashion show without models? Or create a product line with no real materials? One group trying to answer those questions are Digi-Gxl, a collective of international women, trans, inter sex and non-binary digital artists. Two of their artists talk to the 大象传媒鈥檚 Sophia Smith Galer about creating work in the world of 3-D art, design and animation.

What is it like to feel isolated and left out in the cold? In her interactive show called Elision performed remotely from her living room in Glasgow, the Icelandic artist Gudrun Soley Sigurdardottir explores otherness and ideas of belonging. She tells Tina how as an immigrant living in a post Brexit climate of division and disconnection, her light hearted attempts to stay warm and connected in her performance, take on a deeper meaning.
