Honey Biba Beckerlee
Honey Biba Beckerlee examines connections and entanglements across the spheres of geology, technology and biology, mapping the movement of material elements from nature into the computer and onwards into the human body. Now we invite you to the opening of her exhibition Digital Matters:
Wednesday 12 October at 17.00-20.00
The admission is free and everyone is welcome.
About the exhibition:
Through her works, Honey Biba Beckerlee calls attention to the huge demand for materials generated by the digital age while also pointing to the complex connections between minerals, humans and technology.
Cable drums, microchip waste, wires and server racks are among the materials used in the exhibition Digital Matters, which consists of a series of sculptural installations done as ceramic mosaics made out of waste products from a microchip factory and as woven algorithms made of optical fibre cables and copper wire.
The works delve into our relationships with the digital realm and inquire into our knowledge of how specific elements from our computer find their ways into our circuits. At the same time, Biba Beckerlee challenges the various materials, exploring what they are actually capable of and how they are generally perceived in order to create new ways of viewing their material and cultural impact – and, thus, of understanding the context and design of technology.
