The Tradwives

Last year Malte Steiner learned that there is an antifeminist movement. Female antifeminists. Further research lead to the art installation The Tradwives: Three color e-paper screens generate and show unsupervised and uncensored collages of material which was data-scraped from Tradwife influencer profiles on Instagram. The material was first decomposed with Machine Learning into smaller bits which within the installation are rearranged to ever changing collages.
First shown at Oksasenkatu 11 Helsinki (FI) last September. Part of Steiner's art project Absolute Power.

The Big Crash exhibition Aalborg

In one week on the 1. August the new art space XM3 opens in Aalborg, Denmark and I am honoured to have the first exhibition there with my project The Big Crash - Art For The Pending Burst Of The Real Estate Bubble. My soloexhibition features some new art pieces I show the first time and can be visited from 1. till 25. August.

Absolute Power: Rewriting History

With my new artproject Absolute Power I analyse and reflect on power structures and the mechanisms behind them. An important method to establish power is to rewrite history, to change the narration. For the piece Rewriting History: I keep Forgetting Faces I created a software which chooses randomly pictures from Wikipedia and erases with the help of Machine Learning the people in it. The best results I paint in oil. These paintings are to be exhibited along with displays showing the process of the removal.

Another part of future exhibitions is a mounted computer with a bi-color e-paper display which in realtime analyses random pictures from Wikipedia, removes people and uses the fragments to compose new pictures:
