Outline

Delving into the evolving landscape of capitalism amidst technological advances, Handa questions the transformative promises of blockchain and AIs.

The exhibition unfolds as a dynamic exploration, mirroring the trial-and-error evolution of capitalism. Handa crafts artworks on-site, akin to an open studio, unveiling imperfect prototypes. Amidst this, he showcases prior works, taking a stance against accelerationism.

Handa draws parallels between art and capitalism, AI and humans. His works exude cynicism not only toward capitalism but also toward art itself. However, he affirms, underscoring his belief in the transformative power of art. “Even though art is unproductive, it can instigate changes in people’s lives, like a function in computer programming.”
