Uffe Isolotto is a Danish mutli-displinary artist specializing in physical and digital sculpture. His work is known for pushing the boundary around questions of how the human body intersects with the machine – in a time when social media and artificial intelligence are increasing their presence in our days-to-day life, what does it mean to be human, how do our bodies interact with the world (physical and digital), and how do we conceive of our bodies as they wonder, stress, move, reflect, espcape, revel and survive through the twent-first century world?
Uffe isolotto latest installation, We Walked the Earth, is being exhibited in The Pavilion of Denmark at the 59th International Art Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia. A family of centaurs greet visitors as they walk through a farm life installation examining the human form and machinery.
We interviewed Isolotto over Instagram chat to ponder over social media and its relationship with art, artificial intelligence and his thoughts on the time-old question of where do your ideas come from – is it a pest of a question or does it allow the artist time to reflect?
