ABOUT
Thrive+:
‘’Ilse Kind, geboren 1994 in den Niederlanden, ist eine transdisziplinäre künstlerin, die erforscht, wo das Physische und das Digitale zusammenfließen. Durch ihre Arbeit deckt sie die symbiotische Beziehung zwischen Natur und Technologie auf und zeigt, wie diese Systeme nabeneidnander existieren, sich entwickeln und gegenseitig beeinflussen.’’
Museum of Young Art:
‘’Ilse Kind (geboren in 1994) is een Nederlandse kunstenaar die woont en werkt in Amsterdam. Ze werkt met sculptuur, installatie, tekenen, video en collage. In haar artistieke praktijk onderzoekt ze en maakt ze gebruik van technologische systemen die momenteel een parasitaire en verslindende aanwezigheid in ons leven hebben. In dit systeem worden mensen behandeld als kneedbare wezens die een gesimuleerde en vereenvoudigde versie van de realiteit ervaren, terwijl de illusie van individuele vrijheid behouden blijft. Met haar werk onderzoekt Kind hoe dit systeem vervreemding en verschillende vormen van pathologisch gedrag veroorzaakt’’
Doron Beuns:
‘’Ilse Kind is a Dutch artist who works across sculpture, installation, drawing, video and collage. In her artistic practice she investigates and uses technological systems that currently (mis)interpet, predict, direct and parasitise our lives. In this system human beings are treated as malleable creatures who experience a simulated and simplified version of reality whilst maintaining the illusion of individual freedom.‘’
Ella Paritsky:‘’Dutch artist Ilse Kind, challenges the simulated reality imposed by technological systems. Luckily for us, we get the chance to see her new sculptures, crafted with the aid of A.I. along with a video exploring the obscured symbiosis at the core of A.I.-generated images. Oh but wait, there more. In another area of the exhibition, Kind confronts us with a video revealing the ways in which hidden surveillance resembles the behaviour of parasites; leaching beneath our skin through biometric algorithms.’’
