Artist statement

Jingyi's work is a profound meditation on the digital zeitgeist, exploring themes of cyborg identities, surveillance platforms, algorithmic bias, and feminism through the prisms of Foucault's dissections of power and Donna Haraway's cyborg theory. Her work, steeped in the contemporary discourses of the Internet age, uses the latest in XR, AI, and generative art to question and dismantle the binary constructs of human-machine, nature-technology, and male-female. Inspired by Haraway's vision of a post-gender world, Jingyi's art interrogates the roles that technology plays in shaping our perceptions and interactions, while drawing from Foucault's ideas on the mechanisms of control exerted through societal structures. In this digital-cosmic theater, she invites viewers to navigate the blurred lines between the organic and the artificial, urging a critical reflection on the impact of the digital world on our lives and advocating for a future where equality and inclusivity are coded into the very algorithms that permeate our existence.
