We are delighted to share the upcoming series of exhibitions taking place at Inspace to bring our 2024 programme to a close.
This programme features three exhibitions that explore AI from a range of different perspectives. Our first exhibition, Can AI Represent Care? seeks to highlight and raise awareness of the biases this technology can perpetuate, encouraging discussion and reflection on the ways we talk about and perceive the role of care in our society. This is followed by An Obscure Camera, an interactive installation that plays with the idea of the Camera Obscura, or pinhole image, but bringing this concept into a 21st-century context through a physically interactive installation. Last but not least we bring this years exhibition programme to a close with How to Find the Soul of the Sailor, a poignant and personal work where the artist shares through the eyes of her late father, an emotional and environmental journey highlighting the fragility of our oceans. Read more below.
Can AI represent Care?
Mon – Sun | 4-10 Nov 2024 (closed Tues/Thurs)
This exhibition explores how AI-generated images can uncover biases and misconceptions about care in our society, and the role of technology in shaping these perceptions. What does care mean in our daily lives, and can AI ever understand care?
If you have an interest in AI, images, or care, do come along!
An Obscure Camera
Fri-Thurs 22-28 Nov 2024 (closed Tues/Thurs)
An Obscure Camera plays with the the long standing fascination with Camera Obscura that has captured audience imagination from Victorian times to present day. Through a physically interactive installation, An Obscure Camera seeks to gives visitors the agency to physically enact the choices made by ubiquitous AI algorithms that observe, scrutinise, and categorise our every move.
Visit this interactive moving image installation where you the viewer become the performer and conductor of your own experience.

Immerse yourself in a deeply personal journey to the future of our oceans and sailors’ time at sea, through the eyes of Molga’s late father, Tadeusz Molga, a devoted sailor.
A must-see for those interested in the intersections of art, technology, and the environment, offering a poignant reflection on the future of our planet and the boundless possibilities of human-AI collaboration
