The exhibition "Poltergeist" (meaning "noisy ghost") is a collaborative show featuring seven artists. Since the 20th century, human scientific and technological advancements have rapidly evolved, with today's AI developments marking a new technological turning point. In this context, questions surrounding "technology" are once again gaining attention. This exhibition explores the relationship between technology and spiritual energy, or between spiritual energy and matter.
It is well-known that spiritualism and occultism were widespread in 20th-century Europe, and inventor Thomas Edison was one of those involved in these trends. Drawing inspiration from Edison's later work on a spirit communication device, the exhibition reintroduces the concept of "spiritual energy" into the realms of technology and media.
The display will include video works and installations using automatic instruments, allowing visitors to experience these themes both visually and audibly.
