Welcome to the 🤜 Claire Kwong Arena 🤛 I'm showing Between, Light Touches Skin, Chromapose, and Interpose all in the same room at the Playtime Festival in Bruges, Belgium! It will be my first solo exhibition. It’s going to be complete chaos and I can’t wait.

GDC 2020, the final Mild Rumpus that never was. I was so proud of what we had planned. I’d been collaborating with architects You+Pea on a new reusable exhibition set up inspired by climbing frames. It was going still be playful & chill but a step up in what we’d done before.

yo, we'll be out at GDC next month ✨ if you want to talk about the weird / cool spaces where digital and physical things overlap (custom-made controllers & hardware; alternative arcade cabinets; one-of-a-kind artefacts for streamers; events, etc), we'll be around 💜

I'm back in NYC and finally sorting through all the photos from my travels. I'll be posting highlights in reverse order, from the Overkill all the way back to A MAZE Sheffield. I miss touring and hope I can do more in 2025! First up is Between at the Overkill Festival last month in Enschede, NL!
