Launched by X Museum in 2019, X Virtual fosters new artistic 3D spaces within virtual worlds by commissioning artists to create new digital works and organizing online and offline exhibitions, workshops, and talks. X Virtual aims to promote new thoughts, discussions, and interdisciplinary practices in relation to emerging Web3-centered technologies, including XR, AI, and game engines.
