"of out of touch"
1: not communicating with each other
2: in a state of not knowing what is happening, how certain people feel, etc.
The phrase „Out of touch“ or „out of touch with reality“ stands for a feeling in which one literally does not „understand“, or literally „cannot feel/touch something anymore“; a symptom that may stand for an enraptured society.
A seemingly dematerializing world, where we engage more and more with immaterial and territorially unbound spaces behind mirror-smooth screens, that are not not tangibly accessible.
The exhibition brings together works that explore the traces that the interweaving of technology with every aspect of our lives leave behind. Central work of the exhibition is the video art project„I don‘t exist yet“, which deals with stand-ins for computer-animated characters. Initially invisible to the viewer, the computer-animated characters only come to life through mathematically simulated textures.
As the central motif, Susanna Flock sheds light on the ghost costume of CGI. The invisible construction of digital effects are dissected to make the body of the seemingly bodiless tangible. Backstage, one still sees inanimate representatives, who only become subjects in digital reworking.
