Exhibition

The works in this exhibition draw parallels between the ancient story of the Tower of Babel and the complexities of our modern digital age. In today's world, we are united by a new common language: binary code, the foundation of our digital existence. From everyday life to global politics and conflicts, technology has become both a connector and a disruptor. This exhibition raises the question: could the digital ''tower'' we are building, like its ancient counterpart, crumble under the weight of its own complexity? 

The sculptures themselves, constructed from porcelain and copper, embody the tension between antiquity and modernity. Porcelain, symbolizing the Earth from which the biblical tower was built, represents the deep-rooted connection to the physical world, while copper, essential to modern digital communication, highlights the flow of information in the virtual age. Included onto the surface of these towers are binary codes. These inscriptions blur the lines between the ancient and the modern, reflecting the way old narratives are carrried forward in new, digital forms.
