NewImages works through collaboration. Our team develops projects with artists, producers, curators, educators, cultural venues, institutions, public partners, foundations, companies and local communities.
This collective approach reflects our mission: to make immersive art a shared culture, shaped by artists, professionals, venues and audiences together.
NewImages is committed to providing a safe, inclusive and respectful environment for everyone involved in its activities: artists, professionals, audiences, speakers, team members, volunteers, partners and service providers.
Our code of conduct aims to guarantee a space free from discrimination, harassment and violence, including gender-based and sexual harassment and violence. It applies to all events, programs and working environments led by NewImages, including the festival, residencies, workshops, professional meetings and year-round collaborations.
We ensure that clear reporting and support mechanisms are in place so that any problematic situation can be addressed confidentially, carefully and appropriately.
By taking part in NewImages activities, each participant, partner or supplier commits to behaving respectfully and actively contributing to a climate of safety, listening and tolerance.
As a non-partisan organization, NewImages welcomes artists, professionals and audiences of all nationalities, backgrounds and cultural identities. Our commitment is rooted in diversity, inclusion, accessibility and the sharing of knowledge through immersive and digital arts.
