Explore art that reflects, celebrates and interrogates the internet and digital culture through a series of free virtual exhibitions and performances as part of ACMI's Gallery 5.

Lu Yang's dizzying virtual world is a neon dreamscape. Exploring digital voyeurism and online cultures, Delusional World summons audiences to ACMI's new online gallery to encounter a frenetic collision of Chinese mythology, sci-fi futures and live performance.

This free mind-bending, hyper-pop performance features a contemporary dancer fitted with motion capture technology, who projects fantastical digital avatars of the artist that materialise as deranged deities, Manga-inspired mutants and cyborgs. Live-streamed from Chronus Art Centre in Shanghai.

Delusional World is commissioned by ACMI, Arts Centre Melbourne, Asia TOPA and Exhbitionist, in collaboration with curator Mathew Spisbah and Chronus Art Centre. It is presented as part of Asia TOPA 2020.
