Through its different programs, DAÏMÔN encourages artists to push the limits of their practice and to develop new and original approaches to image, video, photography, sound art, electronics and new medias.

DAÏMÔN provides artists with workspaces and access to a wide range of technical equipment, encouraging them to research and experiment across disciplines, creating dynamic links between arts and technology.
