In a hyper-connected yet profoundly lonely world, BINÁLÉ returns with the timely theme “We Are Not Alone.” Curators Viola Lukács and Julia Neudold invite us to explore the paradoxes of alienation, intimacy, and belonging through expanded media art, blurring the boundaries between human, technology, and extraterrestrial encounters.
BINÁLÉ is realised in collaboration with this year’s sponsor, the 0xCollection, and the István Örkény Theatre.
Designs by Mate Serflek, animations by Gábor Kitzinger, and soundscapes by Rozi Mákó.
Experience transformative installations and thought-provoking dialogues that challenge what it means to encounter the Other - be it alien, artificial, or fundamentally human.
Join the exploration. See you in Budapest!
