Let technology speak for cities · Let art connect the world
MechaArt Nexus is a pioneering project that brings robotics into dialogue with contemporary art, founded by internationally recognized creator Ricky Ma, known for independently developing the humanoid humanoid robot Mark I. While rooted in technological innovation, the essence of this project lies in artists’ visions — using robotics as a vessel to express ideas, culture, and imagination.
We warmly invite distinguished artists and curators to join this creative journey. In each city, one curator will be selected to represent and guide the cultural narrative, while multiple artists may contribute their visions and creations. This is not a showcase of machines, but a chorus of cultural storytelling — creating an intimate yet international dialogue where every city contributes its unique artistic voice, shaping a platform in which technology serves the imagination of artists.
Three-Way Collaboration: Artists · Curators · Mark Robotics
Our project is built on three forces working together:
Artists — leading the creative vision, sharing cultural perspectives, and shaping the artistic direction.
Curators — connecting ideas with opportunities, institutions, and audiences.
Mark Robotics — providing the technological foundation that transforms concepts into lifelike, expressive, robotic artworks.
Beyond artistic dialogue, MechaArt Nexus connects ideas with curators, networks, and supportive partners — from cultural institutions and collectors to brands and global audiences — creating the conditions for visions to be realized. Within this framework, artists gain recognition and access to the support needed to develop their work; curators strengthen their role as cultural connectors, channeling opportunities and resources; and partners engage with distinctive creations that offer both artistic innovation and long-term cultural value. Together, this synergy generates exhibitions, dialogues, and collaborations that none could achieve alone.
Once a collaboration is confirmed, we will share clear next steps — including how the process works and how support will be provided — ensuring that every partner feels confident and well-informed.
