Made a new lolcat sculpture inspired by the “What Has Been Seen Cannot Be Unseen” meme. “What Has Been Seen” is a black taxidermy cat, sitting on a microwave containing an erased hard drive (’cause it’s been microwaved).

3D install shots for the MCA catalogue
October 10th, 2018
Renderings of the works we’re showing at the Chicago Museum of Contemporary Art, for the show “I Was Raised on the Internet”, curated by Omar Kholeif. They were made for the catalogue, they’re a brilliant mix of actual installation shots – done in the museum – and 3D renderings, and it’s rather hard to tell what’s what (which is the point of course nowadays).

“And now that things are changing for the worse see, it‘s a crazy world were living in And I just can‘t see that half of us immersed in sin Is all we have to give these Futures made of virtual insanity now Always seem to, be governed by this love we have For useless, twisting, our new technology Oh, now there is no sound, for we all live underground”
Thanks Stefanie Böttcher and Lina Krämer for the great job!

Curated by Omar Kholeif, “I Was Raised on the Internet” just opened at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago. The artists list is so long I can’t even paste it here.

First Person Plural at BAK
June 13th, 2018
Several episodes of Dark Content are installed in “First Person Plural: Empathy, Intimacy, Irony and Anger”, curated by Matteo Lucchetti at BAK, Utrecht (thanks Matteo!!!). Photos are here.
“What roles do emotions and affects play in forming collectivities and political belonging? What kind of “we’s” do empathy, intimacy, irony, and anger assemble, and how do they determine which “first person plurals” someone is part of? And where does the affective power of art stand in these processes?”
Thanks to photographer Tom Janssen for the great shots!
