24 Hours with Jewel at the 2026 Venice Biennale Festival

Singer-songwriter Jewel has transformed into a multimedia artist, presenting a solo exhibition titled '24 Hours with Jewel' at the 2026 Venice Biennale. The show features 34 new works, including paintings, sculptures, and kinetic installations, with the centerpiece 'Heart of the Ocean'—an eight-foot kinetic sculpture created in collaboration with scientists from NASA, NOAA, Stanford, and UC Berkeley that translates real-time oceanographic data into light and sound. V Magazine followed Jewel for 24 hours as she prepared for her Biennale debut, documenting her day from rooftop meditations and water taxi rides with her son to private patron tours and an opening night performance in a custom Schiaparelli dress.

Embodying Code: Artist Alida Sun and the physical craft of code art

Berlin-based artist Alida Sun has reached a milestone of 2,500 consecutive days of creating digital art, using a custom-built system that translates physical movement into light and sound. Her recent exhibition, "RITES" at Method Delhi, bridges the gap between digital code and physical craft by transforming her generative algorithms into hand-woven tapestries. This collaboration with women artisans from the Swami Sivananda Memorial Institute of Fine Arts & Crafts (SSMI) highlights the historical and technical links between textile weaving and computer programming.
