MODERN SPIRITUALITY
As part of FLATLAND’s determination to give more attention to female voices in the cultural field in 2020, FLATLAND proudly presents at Art Rotterdam young female artists who work on new questions of existence that rise from the magic in new technology, artificial intelligence, relationships, the forces of natural resources of the earth.
Both digital artist duo Pinar&Viola (Pinar Demirdag, 1985 and Viola Renate, 1982) as Alice Brown (1986) bring new insights to reconnect with magic. With their critical standing point, they provide us new visions and help liberate us from the limitations of old systems.
