Prototype 1.0 and 1.1 2017

"Prototype 1.0 and 1.1" (2017) by Hito Steyerl features two sculptures composed of stacked, rectangular blocks. The sculptures are arranged in the space in a way that suggests the potential for movement, while the minimalist, blocky forms evoke a sense of both robotic and organic qualities. The work exemplifies Steyerl's exploration of contemporary technology and its relationship to the human body, referencing ideas of artificial intelligence and the changing nature of our physical and digital selves.
