Transgressive Memory Festival 2026

The festival proposes transgressive memory as both a method and a principle—a form of remembrance that dismantles institutionalized rituals, blurs the line between documentary and fiction, and acknowledges technology’s complicity in shaping collective consciousness.

By drawing on the grammars of the digital realm—its glitches, loops, and new forms of archives and networks—artists and cultural practitioners are reshaping the aesthetics of memory.

Their works mobilize image, code, and sound as rebellious languages that disrupt linear temporalities and create spaces of diversity, contradiction, and ghostly return.

Here, remembrance is no longer about preserving facts, but about activating the relationship between bodies and databases, absence and algorithms, personal encounters and public testimony.
