Notably, the neighborhood of artists that have interaction in glitch artwork “do not just identify as male or female but consist of people from every gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, language, neuro-type, size, ability, class, religion, culture, subculture, political opinion, age, skill level, occupation and background,” Sotheby’s provides.
