October Sharify: AUTOMATA
@ Epiphany Center for the Arts
201 S Ashland Ave, Chicago, IL 60607
Opening Friday, September 13th, from 6PM - 9PM
On view through Friday, November 1st
AUTOMATA is a body of work that explores the mind, body, and soul as it relates to the impending technological future, and what that means for human spirituality. How does spirituality move through a future where the human body is more machine than flesh? The goal in making and observing these works is that we can begin to discuss and process a future both incredibly near, and beyond our time – as a theoretical anthropology. The word automata means self-willed, self-driven or motivated – usually relating to machines, and it encapsulates the marching of time, the rate of technological advancement, and the indomitable human spirit as it adapts to its environment; on and on and on and on.
