RW. [post-]

In Plugin’s 2019/2020 Istanbul exhibition, themed RW. [material] showed how the artist’s Works produced in his laboratory/studio, all aiming to be an experience  on their own,  with new understanding of shape, the origins of its raw material, perception and finally how the object is making a connection with its viewer. This years exhibition RW [post-] shows the raw material discovered in 2019-2020 being used, it’s a continuation of the data from the previous year RW. [post-] which will meet the audience with new Works  processed from raw materials, artists will focus on: the communication flow between human-machine, artificial reproductions, artificial intelligence, areas such as bioart which are not limited to the aesthetic language of the new media that has passed / left  and reproduction where the time we are re-designing our near future. Even though the word ‘’post’’ is used for explaining the other from it’s self, it also explains the production process and the language. Within the framework of the theme of post-digital (Post-Digital) and post-human (Post-Human) concepts; designed as the digital membrane of this period, «post-» invites artists and researchers to explore in a fiction that centers in today's data and the silicon world.
