Abstract
The rapid advancement of digital technology has profoundly transformed the landscape of traditional art forms, reshaping artistic expression and how art is produced, shared, preserved, and interpreted. This paper examines the complex intersection between technology and traditional art, tracing historical developments and examining contemporary manifestations of this evolving relationship. Through case studies including graffiti artist Kickass, multimedia theatre by the Late-Night Producing Company, and hybrid works by artists such as Leonel B. Rondon and Sarah E. F. Yoko Vynne, this study explores how technology both challenges and enriches traditional media like painting, sculpture, and performance. Further discussions highlight the preservation of analog practices, the collaborative dynamics between technologists and artists, and the socio-cultural tensions arising from digital integration. This analysis reveals that while digital media poses challenges to authenticity, interactivity, and cultural identity, it also offers unprecedented tools for innovation, accessibility, and creative resistance. The paper ultimately argues that rather than replacing traditional practices, digital technology reshapes and revitalizes them in ways that reflect and respond to contemporary cultural and technological realities.
