Picture a warm evening in 6015 with rainbow visions and optical installations. This is the future aesthetic that IRIDESCENCE at The Shore Club in South Beach Miami—showcasing 15 international artists—celebrates. Collaborators H+Creative and SP Projects curated sculptural, projected, 2D, 3D, and neon works, all from the New Futurism genre, which blends technological advancements with traditional art practice.

Sarah Potter of SP Projects sees New Futurism as a natural evolution of the New Media genre, showcasing "the way artists are embracing new technology while still holding a nostalgic reference to design and color palette." Artists featured at the Miami installation include Kidmograph, Lala Abaddon, and Clara Luzian, a.k.a., Render_Fruit.

Potter tells The Creators Project, "In 2016, we will be bringing IRIDESCENCE to Los Angeles and Philadelphia and we are in negotiations to bring it to an international audience as well. I think that there is a lot of interest in the New Futurism genre; at its base is a reverence for technology which for better or worse, we all need and use on a daily basis. We are living in the future"
