Accidental Triggers by Ofri Cnaani at Triskel Gallery Space 2 April - 14 June
Artist Ofri Cnaani works in diverse media including performance, installation, and print. Her performances are often made for one person at the time, offering new perspectives on the concept of ‘mediation’ through the tension between the age-old occult and the omniscient digital world.
The exhibition explores questions surrounding data collection and algorithmic prediction. In addition, it examines aspects of electronic colonialism in the context of e-production.
Central to the exhibition is Cnaani’s performance Accidental Triggers (2019 – ongoing), in which she invites visitors, one by one, to sit in for a live A.S.M.R. test that predicts their ‘algorithmic fate’: a map of products, words, news clippings and social connections. The artist considers the potential future of each participant as predicted by their meta-data, brushed up against the crossed wires of automatic product-placement.
Her exhibition will be on display in Triskel Gallery Space from Thursday 2 April until Sunday 14 June 2020.
