We’ve invited some of the world’s most exciting artists to create free online artworks that imagine what might be to come in The Factory – MIF’s future year-round home. Virtual Factory, our new series, launches with Your Progress Will Be Saved, an online experience created by avatar artist LaTurbo Avedon that reimagines The Factory as a space within the hugely popular videogame Fortnite Creative. Join MIF and LaTurbo Avedon for a glimpse of the future – and of The Factory at virtual-factory.co.uk
