The Emerging Digital Artists Award (EDAA) is Canada's major award for critical experimentation in digital media, proudly presented by Trinity Square Video and EQ Bank. Established in 2015, the annual award celebrates the contributions of early-career, screen-based artists working exclusively in virtual space. Each year, we seek artwork submissions from across the country that push us in new directions and challenge us to see the world through a different screen.
Trinity Square Video is a space to re-imagine media arts. As video-based practices have become increasingly present across disciplines, Trinity Square engages artists and curators in critical investigations into the changing conditions of perception, materiality, and the virtual.
EQ Bank is the digital banking platform launched in 2016 by Equitable Bank, Canada's Challenger Bank™. As a future-ready financial institution, fostering innovation is at the heart of everything we do. We firmly believe in the benefits of open banking and continue to invest in technology to serve the changing and growing financial needs of Canadians.
