As part of this symposium the five residents Bretas, Dera Luce, hiba ali, Kira Xonorika and Noam Youngrak Son will exhibit their work and share the artistic outputs of their three-month residency.
hiba ali, producer of moving images, sounds, garments and words, develops web VR experiences that use somatic approaches to slow down time for the viewer. Bretas, visual artist and researcher, critically dedicates two artworks to a 1860s portraiture archive of Afro-Brazilians whose photographs have since been in museums in Germany, an approach on ethnology, colonialism and racialized depiction through the use of AI techniques. Dera Luce, writer and multi-disciplinary artist, blends music and personal archives to create "Heal-GPT (Slowed + Reverb)," a story about healing physical and psychological transgenerational trauma. Noam Youngrak Son, communication designer practicing queer publishing, speculates on possible unionisation between precarious designers and AI, especially given concerns about the devaluation of design work as a result of generative AI. Kira Xonorika, interdisciplinary artist, writer and futurist, visualises an indigenous, trans AI in generated images and audio, creating an origin story for the axiological restoration of time and space in the future. The residents have had access to creative sparring with the artists Idil Galip, Moisés Horta Valenzuela, Neema Githere, Petja Ivanova, and Vanessa A. Opoku.
Location: k4 und kmh auf Kampnagel (Jarrestraße 20, Hamburg).
