C yberpunk is an aesthetic subgenre that is made up of the combination of “high tech and low life”, navigating the concept of a highly innovative and future-forward yet detrimental and tumultuously grungey society.

Our current generation is bombarded with countless technological advancements, driving fast on the road towards a fully automated, robotic civilization. Yet such utopian buildup of this period of time is also contradicted by the many suffering faced by underprivileged people living amongst the hardships of bigotries, wars, wealth gaps, climate change, and many other misfortunes. With how accessible and consequently insubstantial internet resources are, the artists of Gen Z gave birth to the aesthetic form of Cyberpunk as a method to document the dystopian disintegration of our time threaded by the tension between technology and poverty, utilizing such artworks as a form of protest and rebellion towards the deeply ingrained systems within our society.

Theirsverse’s Cyberpunk collection hopes to tackle this notion and encapsulate the chaos that dawned upon this era. We want to hear the voices of this generation and the soul and spirit masked under machinery and armors with the ultimate hope that civilization will aim for peace and love for all as much as they strive for technological achievements. This work is made for our belief in the mission of the new generation of artists.

博朋克是一種由“high tech, low life.”組合而成的美學概念,這代表著一個高度創新的、科技發達的、未來的,但是高壓的、低能量的、秩序混亂的社會概念。

年輕一代被快速的技術進步轟炸著,人工智能、高科技生命體在飛速發展。然而,社會表像的這種科技烏托邦式建設卻與人民大眾面臨的更多苦難形成矛盾,現代人實際生活在偏見、戰爭、貧富差距、氣候變化和更多其他不幸之中。

由於互聯網信息化和虛擬世界的建設,Z世代的藝術家們催生了賽博朋克的美學形式,作為一種記錄我們這個時代被科技和人文發展之間的緊張關係所導致的反烏托邦解體的方法,利用這種藝術形式發聲,表達對社會中根深蒂固的階級制度的抗議和求變。

Theirsverse的賽博朋克系列希望呈現這樣的一種概念,它濃縮了這個時代出現的矛盾與混亂。我們希望聽到這一代人的聲音,聽到被機械和盔甲掩蓋的靈魂和精神,希望人類文明能像追求科技成就一樣追求和平和愛。此作品旨在反映新一代藝術家的使命。
