I'm participating in this project - multimedia group exhibition, and will show 2 x photo collages and do a performance on 19th of May.
UN1TY
How can the boundaries between artists and their audience, the portrayers and their subjects be taken down? UN1TY is a multimedia group exhibition dedicated to the question of how artistic processes can be democratized and de-hierarchized. The show focuses on the art of portraiture – from studio photography, retouched and augmented imagery, collage, moving image to AI-generated photography and live interaction for a fuller artistic expression, as well as the representation of the self as home.
Art Show
Friday May 19, 6-9PM
& Saturday May 20 2-6PM
The exhibition vernissage will present the multimedia portraits created in group sessions as well as in the workshop together with the audience. The works will be enhanced by live performance and interaction in space by the artists present and made a multi-sensory experience. On the following day, the works will be exhibited as visual pieces only.
Free for All Workshop
Sunday May 14, 5-8PM
In the course of a workshop open to both the artists and the public, the exhibition works are developed and selected based on the structures of Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs), the curation is guided by the work of all participants as well as their votes in an election process.
The workshop also features a guided discussion between the artists and the audience that explores the portrait as a creative genre, the use of new tech along with emerging questions of copyright and accessibility, and potential approaches to creating democratic structures in art. In the second half of the workshop, participants will dedicate themselves to the practical creation of an AI portrait and will participate to different practical workflows including a DAO-inspired curatorial vote. The traditional barriers between curator and artist will fall, and the audience will gain deeper insights into the organization of an exhibition.
