Core Introduction 

The 3rd International Digital Art Biennial "THE ONE" is a biennial international digital art event organized by Pinata Foundation, dedicated to exploring the future of our planet. The title "THE ONE" refers to Planet Earth, the only known place in the cosmos where life has developed. We want to draw attention to the uniqueness of our planet and instill in the project's recipients a sense of responsibility to care for its future. The competition's goal is to spark a discussion about the ongoing destruction of Earth caused by human activity—the progress of civilization. We want every artist and recipient to reflect on why in our daily lives we often neglect to consider the future of the world, forgetting what is most important. Shouldn't caring for the planet be our common goal?
