A
event
held at Centrespace Gallery
on Friday 6th February. The event starts at 12:00.
In her exhibition WTF? Who’s The Future?, Kate asks questions about our human future through the lens of the now. She does this by placing artworks that comment on today into a future context, and presents viewers with scenarios that aim to challenge and inspire.
The exhibition’s main piece is a semi-immersive, interactive artwork titled All About You. The art changes in response to viewers’ brainwaves, movement, and facial expressions. It will be a first of its kind in terms of the number of human signals it responds to at scale. Visitors can choose to watch a demonstration or try out the artwork themselves.
Alongside her visual practice, Kate writes satirical speculative fiction, where she asks questions of the future of humanness, it is an exploration that has influenced her art.
In the exhibition, Kate shares the stories behind her work, including her background in human–machine interaction and neuroergonomics which underpin her interactive art. She also tells the stories behind her earlier works on display, including her solo travels and what it was like to photograph the 2011 riots.
