“Soft Tissue; Hard Wire”
In 1969, the pathbreaking artist Sonia Sheridan established a department of Generative Systems at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Emphasizing an open, ever-changing, and decentralized curriculum, Sheridan focused her students on the artistic implications of ideas transformed through the integration of flesh, art, and technology. She taught students how to repurpose, recombine, and steer relationships with industry. An institution filled with artists and scholars, SAIC embraces the curricular process as a study of science, art, and technology. Coursework, artistic affiliations, and conversations scrutinize “natural” systems, command language and its political outcomes, and articulation of bodies. We study lifeways anew while “life” has become fully saturated with proprietary technology that is poised on an exploitation of indigenous techniques and resources. Our practices therefore foster emerging and communal orientations to art and technology. Soft Tissue; Hard Wire invites the viewer to contemplate technology through just a few of the many directions from which it permeates our lives. Should we find ourselves cemented in the present, the exhibition suggests that we move forward and backwards through time to consider our influence on technology, and technology’s influence on Earth's inhabitants.
