Art, Meet the Future.

Mediale is an international media arts agency. We develop, produce, exhibit and tour work from artists working around the blurred edges of digital art.

About Mediale

Mediale exists to support, push forward, and develop digital arts in the UK and beyond. We do this by crafting rigorous talent development programmes for emerging artists, supporting individuals and studios with commissions and new works, and partnering with institutions looking to develop their digital offering and engagement with digital art.

“Mediale has a magical way of making art for everyone. Their approach celebrates the people and place, allowing creativity to flow in an inclusive way”
– Community leader, Selby, 2024.

All of our work is underpinned by the showcasing and development of diverse talent while creating lasting relationships, collaborations and partnerships with those who share and champion our values.

 

 

What We Do

Day to day, we play a pivotal role in orchestrating the ins and outs of making things happen with artists and communities. We work as producers, advisors, curators, mentors and champions for artists in Yorkshire and nationally. Our work focuses on the intersection of art, music and technology which is woven through our practice working with artists at all levels.

Our work can be split into four pillars of often intersecting activity, Artist Development, Commissioning, Consultancy, and Place Based Partnerships, all described briefly below. Please explore our Projects page for more detailed case studies and examples of this work in action, and get in touch via info@mediale.org.uk if you’d be interested in talking to us about a possible project.

We take pride in being able to add value at any stage of​ a project​’s development​. Be it a blank sheet of paper, or a delivery stage of something quite defined, we ​bring experience, insight and ​​expertise.

ARTIST DEVELOPMENT
All of the work we do is underpinned by the development of diverse, forward thinking artistic practice spearheaded by our flagship residency programme: Immersive Assembly. We deliver careful, long-term interventions & holistic artist development, whilst producing high profile arts events that stimulate new thinking.

 

PLACE BASED PARTNERSHIPS
We engage a wide range of artists, creatives, cultural organisations and businesses in the public, private and not-for-profit sectors to create moving, memorable art for people in the places they love. We do this in our home in Selby through Selby Creates amongst other initiatives, and through the work of other place based commissions and participatory artworks that connect communities and create long lasting legacies.
