|| OUR VISION ||

Squatters Lab is dedicated to providing a space where the digital and physical worlds meet to inspire new forms of artistic expression.

By combining analog techniques with digital innovations, we foster collaboration that challenges conventional boundaries. Our focus is not on being the best, but on empowering marginalized voices and emerging artists to explore complex societal themes. Through interdisciplinary work, we aim to bridge technology and tradition, creating immersive experiences that connect culture, innovation, and human expression.

SQUATTER_LAB IS FOUNDED ON THE CONCEPT OF "DIGITALLY OCCUPYING SPACES OR SURFACES," AN ARTISTIC ACT OF SUBVERSION THAT LEVERAGES EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES AND THE POWER OF STORYTELLING. BY UTILIZING TOOLS LIKE AR, VR, AND INTERACTIVE DESIGN, THE COLLECTIVE TRANSFORMS PHYSICAL LOCATIONS AND DIGITAL ENVIRONMENTS INTO IMMERSIVE, NARRATIVE-DRIVEN EXPERIENCES.
