We are now living in a continuous state of emergency. Unpredictable attacks, sudden coups, earthquakes, floods, wildfires and other natural disasters have displaced countless people and forced them to emigrate. The memory of an unknown virus suddenly threatening our lives is still fresh. The resulting political turmoil, fractured human relationships, and loss of everyday life cast a long shadow over our daily lives.
With the rapid evolution of technologies including generative and other types of artificial intelligence, it has become extremely difficult at times to ascertain the authenticity of an image or piece of information in front of our eyes. In this ultra-advanced information society, where the distribution of information is controlled by complex algorithms and cyber attacks are becoming more and more serious, everyone suffers from a deep-seated anxiety, frustrated and helpless.
How can we live in this age of prolonged emergencies? Through the works of eight artists, this exhibition takes a close look at the current era, using our imagination to explore various possibilities for the future.
