Group show with: Khaled Barakeh, Mahube Diseko, Rashiyah Elanga, Levi van Gelder, Joey Holder, Shamiran Istifan, Lucía Pizzani, Niclas Riepshoff, Julijonas Urbonas and Amelia Winger-Bearskin.
Swarm intelligence is not something we have only been concerned with since the growing importance of digital media: we have encountered it since the beginning of time, for example as language, archives or in the world of animals. The summer exhibition entitled SWARM reveals where community and algorithms determine our everyday lives. The artists Khaled Barakeh, Mahube Diseko, Rashiyah Elanga, Levi van Gelder, Joey Holder, Shamiran Istifan, Lucía Pizzani, Niclas Riepshoff, Julijonas Urbonas and Amelia Winger-Bearskin intervene in swimming pool processes, invent SCI-FI scenarios and utilise artificial intelligence. They propose alternative forms of collective memory, translate internet phenomena IRL and explore ways in which groups can renew themselves.
