»Coded Bodies«

Alexander Kadow, Lina Scheynius, Ivonne Thein

Curated by Julia Brigasky & Maidje Meergans

Artificial intelligence and algorithms play a central role in the depiction of the human body. With »Coded Bodies«, the AFF Galerie presents a broad spectrum of the influences of AI:
With “Techno Bodies,” Ivonne Thein reflects on images of the body in our digital culture. Based on X-ray images and digitally generated interpretations of them, Alexander Kadow’s work “The Individual Below” addresses the relationship of the individual to data sets. Lina Scheynius‘ photographs of partly naked bodies are repeatedly censored by the algorithm on Instagram, which questions not only the visibility but also the actual freedom of the, often female, body.
