MEMORY CORRUPT
Works by ReTech
June 1st - August 3rd

Art Thou Gallery, 357 Geary St, San Francisco
Opening Reception June 1st 6-9pm
Closing Reception and Artist Talk - August 3rd
Gallery Hours: Thurs - Sat Noon - 7pm

MEMORY CORRUPT is a fantastical sci-fi world characterized by the innovative use of broken technology spanning over 150 years. Salvaged parts from old radios, cars, TVs, kitchen appliances and various home appliances find new purpose in sculptural creations resulting in a harmonious blend of nostalgia and futuristic elements. Simultaneously, it is a world built on a child's nightmares envisioning a future in which humanity didn't fare well. A world where the future warns against a bio digital convergence.

"As a child I was a vivid dreamer that began to have nightmares at age 2. By age 4 they began to tell a story of me living in a future over 100 years away... From the discarded past and dreams of the future I started to create objects so I could have a tangible hold on that world that only I knew.

I will take apart an old machine, impressed with, not only the parts, but the design, the how, and the why. In that machine there will be a single piece that just clicks into place as part of one of my objects. Instantly all the other bits I need will float around in my head. From that point that object intrusively clouds my mind. It needs to be here, in the real world, a tactile thing." ReTech

Explore themes of artificial intelligence, the bio digital convergence and the possible governmental implications as you step into the future and be part of an extraordinary journey.


MEMORY CORRUPT is an UMA Gallery Oakland production.
