Feature: The Spectator - How Art Collective Remilia Captured the MAGA Movement (2025)
The Spectator recently examined Remilia's influence on contemporary political culture and our role in shaping digital art movements. Writer Alexander Raubo explored how our collective has bridged internet culture, cryptocurrency, and broader cultural movements through our approach to digital art and community building.
Coverage Highlights
The piece provides an in-depth look at our evolution from experimental social media performance art into a multifaceted enterprise. As Raubo notes: "What began as an experiment in social media performance art rapidly evolved into an enterprise spanning NFTs, meme-coins, a health supplement brand, an influencer agency, a record label and a quarterly magazine of net-art criticism."
The article examines several key aspects of our work:
- Cultural Impact: Recognition of how our Milady NFT collection, now valued in the hundreds of millions, has created an instantly recognizable digital identity that resonates across various online communities.
- Aesthetic Philosophy: Discussion of what founder Charlotte Fang describes as our "jovial irreverence" - an approach that emphasizes speed, imitation, collaborative content creation, and the deliberate blurring of creative boundaries.
- Community Building: Analysis of how we've attracted diverse participants, from net artists and crypto developers to fashion students, online communities, and cultural figures from various scenes.
- Technological Vision: Coverage of our connection to accelerationist philosophy and our focus on what Fang calls "mutually assured technological acceleration."
Our Perspective
The Corporation's Human Resources Division are particularly pleased that The Spectator recognized our glorious leadership's role in developing new models for collaborative content creation, where users are encouraged to build upon and remix our aesthetic framework. The coverage reflects our commitment to creating art that operates at the intersection of digital culture, aesthetic innovation, and technological progress. Remilia's work continues to explore how internet-native art forms can influence broader cultural conversations and create new forms of community engagement.
