Office Impart Show Feels Out New Forms of Hybrid Gestures

“Being in the Garden of Forking Paths” opens at Berlin’s Office Impart, hosting “encounters between bodies and machines” with artists Salomé Chatriot, CROSSLUCID, and Pola Sieverding. Inspired by Jorge Luis Borges’ 1941 hypertext precursor, the show explores “touch” and “hybrid gestures” through photography, AI portraiture, and CGI. Chatriot’s video diptych Breathing Patterns and aluminium sculpture Waistgate (Sparks) (both 2023), for example, constitute “pre-fossils” that invoke “techno-mythologies and speculative futures.”
