Contaminate

Contaminate Contaminate is an experiential arts organization. www.contaminate.co

Contaminate is an experiential arts organization that produces unique immersive creative experiences and provides consulting and coaching services to artists and creative businesses. Contaminate unleashes the potential in curators, artists, and viewers by reinventing the traditional art experience with unexpected twists. Contaminate challenges traditional artistic boundaries with questions of what

constitutes an exhibition; calls upon artists to think in terms of art as an experience to be shared with and completed by the audience; creates art and performance languages that leverage technology to interact with the audience and the surrounding environment; provides a social platform for a growing community of creative explorers who love to shake established canons. Contaminate is a living organism that absorbs, digests, assimilates, and recycles available artistic influences, taking on and giving off energy without remaining neutral; it is an outbreak that does not accept limits or constraints.
