Radical Connections - Beyond a Symbiotic Sensation
We find ourselves in a speculative world where new forms of perception and radical empathy emerge on the border between utopia and dystopia. Can the collaboration between technological innovation and microbiology bring the human and the nonhuman closer together? Through worldbuilding, imagined futures, and 3D animation, the installation offers a glimpse into a posthuman world where the hierarchy between species gives way to coexistence and co-creation.
Patrícia Chamrazová is a Slovak research-driven visual artist focused on contemporary issues of ecology, accelerating technological development, and beyond-human relations. She utilizes the fluidity of artistic media, and her practice includes film, audiovisual installations, and XR, which she often expands with forms of textual statements and object elements. She moves from the abstract to the organic, from the conceptual to the intuitive, from science to metaphysics. She uses an approach characterized by immersiveness and soft digital aesthetics with the aim of transformation in both the physical and digital realms. She does not neglect the socio-political context in which her art is placed and draws inspiration from posthuman philosophy, microbiology, and new technology studies. She graduated from the University of Applied Arts Vienna in 2024 (Transmedia Art) and Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava in 2022 (Intermedia). She is currently pursuing her doctoral studies at the Department of Digital Art at Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava.
