talk me tender
Developed in collaboration with London-based artist Minna Pöllänen. Trained on texts concerning themes of care and mortality by both feminist scholars and sources from popular culture, the chatbot provides a counterpoint to the exhibition’s probing of biopolitical frameworks, by looking at vulnerability and difference as sites of care and possibility rather than exploitation and subjugation.
This work was made possible by Together Alone 2.0 commission by the Finnish Academic and Cultural Institute of UK/Ireland.
