About
In its second iteration, Artifacts of Sentience showcases a snapshot of art created at the cusp of this tsunami of technology transforming our humanity. Humans seem compelled to leave a mark, scratching graffiti since at least the cave paintings preserved at Lascaux 19,000 years ago. The internet is the largest and most inviting blank wall of all. As two artists and mothers in conversation, we realized that we are the last generation to have experienced a childhood sans internet and thereby the last to have that experience inform our parenting. Through distance learning and remote-working parents, this global pandemic overwhelmingly forced tablets into kids’ ever-demanding (and human-defining) opposable thumbs. As we each post our own mediated content, who will corral our history?
