Deze vier korte films laten ons verhalen zien die gaan over onze dromen en interacties met machines. Ze onderzoeken de mythologische waarde van de geschiedenis door vragen te stellen als: klopt de kennis die we als kind opdeden tegenwoordig nog wel? En in welke mate wordt onze cultuur beïnvloed door kapitalisme?

LAWRENCE LEK

― Kunstenaar

Lawrence Lek creates speculative worlds and site-specific simulations using gaming software, video, installation and performance.

Contrasts between utopia and ruins, desire and loss, and fantasy and history appear throughout his work to symbolise this exchange. Lek is a graduate of the Cooper Union, the Architectural Association, and Trinity College, Cambridge. His work has been featured in recent exhibitions at Tramway, as part of Glasgow International 2016; Seoul Museum of Art, as part of Seoul Mediacity Biennial 2016, KW Institut, Berlin, Germany; Cubitt Gallery, London; Wysing Arts Centre, Cambridge and the Delfina Foundation, London.
