BBot is an internet-connected sculpture that uses unique technology to project online artwork collections into the physical world. The BBot structure incorporates a video-projection system and mini-computer with internet connectivity. The exhibition of web-based art is curated by Anne Roquigny (Curator) and the content is managed via an online platform. Artworks come in many different formats, including animated gif, WebGL, HTML, Vimeo. BBot operates independently for single projections, or along with other interconnected BBotsfor multi-screen installations. A new selection of works will be presented during the exhibition DATA CITY, presented at the Centre des Arts d’Enghien-Les-Bains (France), from 21 April to 13 July 2017.
“Rebelling Nature”, curated by Anne Roquigny is a selection of online works from 11 international artists including Alix Desaubliaux, Emilie Gervais, Eva Papamargariti, Isabelle Arvers, Joe Hamilton, Katie Torn, Pussykrew, Philip Stearns, Sabrina Ratté, Yoshi Sodoeka and Snow Yun Xue.
The dematerialized works are questioning human activity and how it has been transforming the planet and its ecosystems in monstrous and grotesque ways. The online works are an invitation to meander through imaginary territories with saturated, artificial and volatile landscapes. They reveal desolated and devastated panoramas, apocalyptic, freakish, post catastrophy sceneries. Our consciousness is challenged by the vision of pixelated worlds, where nature is impertinently and ironically following its mind. The overwhelmed and rebelling nature is taking back its own rights and behaving in a peculiar manner.
DATA CITY is a group-show of the UNESCO Creative Cities Network presented at Centre des Arts d’Enghien-les-Bains. This exhibition will show us works from Bright White, Miguel Chevalier, Sin Do-Won, Norimichi Hirakawa, Adrien M & Claire B, Verena Mayrhofer, Officina Mamiwata, Anne Roquigny, Ran Slavin and Studiomodo.
