Cara Francis’ REMOTE

October 8, 2015 @ 8:00 am - October 9, 2015 @ 5:00 pm

Artist Cara Francis will be visiting to discuss her work with drones. Francis has been working with drones in performance art in order to investigate how technology enables acts of love and violence from increasing distances. She facilitates interactions between members of the public and a drone, who asks them questions while hovering above. Its deep voice asks emotional questions, taking on a nearly human presence, yet retaining an aggressive edge. Viewers share their thoughts about surveillance, privacy, fear, and ethics, while interacting in an often humorous bodily way with the physical fact of the drone.
