Fung Public Lecture | Gilt/Guilt: examining the afterlives of colonialisms
Multidisciplinary artist Beatrice Glow creates objects that blend digital processes (such as virtual reality sculpting and 3D printing) with meticulous handcrafting to envision history-informed, equitable futures. In this artist talk, she will share her research-driven practice, which examines the afterlives of colonialisms both within and beyond the archives. She will also discuss her current work-in-progress, Gilt/Guilt, a multimedia installation envisioned as an auction preview set in the late 21st century. This project features fictional artifacts spanning five hundred years, collectively posing the questions: "What do we value? What endures after we are gone? And what makes us uniquely human in the forthcoming age of generative AI?"
