Do Cyborgs Dream Of Electric Sheep

As Artificial Intelligence becomes a bigger part of our lives, that last bastion of exclusivity in Humanity seems threatened: Art. Will robots write the poems and paint the pictures of the future? Our anxiety seems filled by warnings from words and images, sci-fi novels and movies that have warned us of the devastating possibilities of a world devoid of human fallibility.
The four artists in this exhibition use from old to new techniques to ask questions that have occupied us for a long time, in our relationship with gods and goddesses, monkeys and robots. What is creation? Are we creators or creatures? Are we Frankenstein or the monster sewn up with different body parts? It is interesting that the name of the scientist became synonymous with the monster. Does that not tell us that we are unsure which one is which?
