NOCTAMBULANCE

The series NOCTAMBULANCE by Anna Dart invites viewers to explore the profound interplay of magic, fragility, vulnerability, and dreams as fundamental truths of our existence. Through the expression of AI, the series taps into something deeply human and authentic, evoking a sense of reminiscence. Dreams, being highly personal and subjective experiences, are now intersected by the intrusion of AI, a new frontier for humanity. The series celebrates the beauty of emotions intertwined with the realms of sleep and remembering dreams, serving as an invitation to embrace the in-betweens and revel in the subtle vibrations of life.

ABOUT THE EXHIBITION

NOCTAMBULANCE by Anna Dart is part of the exhibition RECOLLECTION. AI AND MEMORY presented by EXPANDED.ART in collaboration with The NFT Gallery at their galleries in New York and London, 11 April – 13 May 2023.

19 artists explore the idea of further challenging the concreteness of human memory—personal or collective—through creative collaboration with AI. Memories are nebulous.

Scientific studies and phenomena such as "The Mandela Effect" have shown that humans rarely recall things in their unbiased exactitude. Artificial Intelligence already assists human memory in the form of predictive text and GPS navigation. One would surmise that there exists a role for AI when it comes to supplementing even more complex memory.

Artists: Crashblossom, Ilya Bliznets, Anna Dart, Olga Fedorova, Ross Goodwin, Danielle King, Margaret Murphy, Kika Nicolela, Roope Rainisto, Daria Rastunina, Manuel Rossner, Travis LeRoy Southworth, Anne Spalter, Nathaniel Stern, Sasha Stiles, Stephan Vasement, Nicola Villa, Sabato Visconti, and Erika Weitz.
