Memo Akten & Katie Hofstadter: Superradiance — Exhibition Opening Reception

​Join us for the opening night of Superradiance, a groundbreaking multiscreen video and sound installation by Memo Akten and Katie Hofstadter that challenges the boundaries between self, biology, and technology.

To open the evening, Gray Area will host an artist conversation with Memo Akten and Katie Hofstadter, joined by Dawn Danby and David McConville of Spherical Studio. Together, they’ll share their processes, which draw on living systems and interdisciplinary research.

​In Superradiance, through what Akten and Hofstadter call "embodied simulation," invisible dancers embedded in animate environments transform forests, oceans, and deserts into extensions of our own bodies—inviting viewers to extend their perception beyond the skin and into the living planet. Experience firsthand how technological mediation can become a means of exploring embodied consciousness rather than escaping it. This is your opportunity to meet the artists and be among the first to encounter their vision of planetary interconnectedness–one so urgently needed at this troubling time in our world.
