Excavation Trail
Solo exhibition at Piramidón Centre d'Art Contemporani, Barcelona
25 Jan - 25 Apr 2023
»Excavation trail« is the first solo show of Alsino Skowronnek in Spain. It shows a selection of paintings and digital work, inspired by both the aesthetics of Artificial Intelligence (AI) as well as codes found in the symbolic languages of graffiti. AI generated content does not suffice as the final output, but is merely a transitionary tool to decouple image structure from content, freely associate and recombine it with textual fragments born out of the lived experience of the artist. Alsino's works establish a direct connection between the interfaces and data of the digital plane and the more analogical plastic arts. As a result of this dialogue, an abstraction is born that reflects on learning processes and shifting patterns in human-computer interaction.
