MANIPULATIONS

The exhibition MANIPULATIONS showcased works that reflect on how the arts can highlight and educate the public into understanding the agenda of our society’s governing. Particularly, in our time of the reigning digital capitalists [and the systems they wish us not to understand], MANIPULATIONS asked the questions: Who are the tool makers, and who are the tool users of our societies? What does a citizen need to participate effectively in the dynamics of today’s systems?
