Founded in 2020, EPOCH is an artist-run virtual gallery that functions as an inclusive community-building platform inviting established and emerging artists working in both digital and analog mediums to participate. Being primarily artist-centric, EPOCH has established itself as a virtual destination that challenges the status quo with its critical and innovative approach to curation and exhibition building. Launched in the nascence of quarantine, EPOCH was created in response to museums and galleries shutting down globally, which caused artists to lose their exhibition opportunities, their means of financial support, and their communities. EPOCH is designed to be an experimental space, outside of the traditional white cube, where the 3D environment for each exhibition allows for artists to respond to current socio-political events in real time.
