Ákkta solo show.

A first artists solo gallery exhibition in which many of his major works produced over the recent years have been exhibited, including new and previously non exhibited projects.

‘Structures of exponentially increasing capacities, synthetic intelligence, data monopolies and power structures, ubiquitous mechanic analysis and interpretation, planetary scale computation, technopolitics and cyberwars, agencies human and artificial, biotechnological interventions, speculative crypto-economies – all these and many other non-human cognitive perspectives reconstitute the aspect of human and a new geological epoch.
In how far is the human aspect subject to technology? To what degree and from what viewpoint is the human aspect autonomous, unpredictable, unquantifiable, faulty, irrational? How shall this human aspect coexist along with the precise ubiquitous machinic automated organisation?
Having once seen the surface under a microscope, we will never again see it as we knew it before. How may we redefine the ‘human’ after seeing the world through the lens other synthetic forms of perception and cognition? Asking this political, ethical and aesthetic questions constitutes new challenges for artistic production, as a primordially ‘human’ project.’
