Kate CheungBio
Kate Cheung is a Hong Kong-based interdisciplinary artist whose practice revolves around slowness, presence, and the perception of time. She approaches slow processes of making and looking as a means of cultivating mindfulness and inhabiting the present moment, seeking to reveal the underlying connections between memories, environments, relationships, and forms of life that may appear separate yet remain deeply intertwined. These inquiries unfold across moving image, installation, thread-based works, artbooks, and writing.

v1 XDDDDDDD explores the uneasy relationship between human emotion and artificial intelligence. The video features computer-generated visuals created by an AI using our personal diary entries, resulting in dreamlike yet kitschy interpretations of intimate emotions. With low-quality green screen found footage and glittering text phrases in an organic process, the video creates a further tension between the sentimental and the artificially generated. This video examines the strange intimacy that arises when an artificial system attempts to visualize and parody our inner lives, that aims to evoke both a sense of familiarity and discomfort when our most personal thoughts are filtered through the lens of an algorithm.
