Presented by A+ Works of Art, Nothing human is alien to me is an exhibition of artists based in the Philippines, curated by Carlos Quijon, Jr.
While at first glance the title hinges on the distinction between what is human and what is alien, the exhibition Nothing human is alien to me expands the scope of the proposition to engage with a number of concepts and histories that venture on speculations, technologies, and advancements that at some point in time exceeded and transformed ideas of humanity.
These are ideas and historical moments that tease out the threshold between humanity and alienness, or in a more specific inflection: how conceptualisations of humanity have been extended or augmented over time enough for it to achieve what before was unimaginable. This may consider more historical anchors such as poetics of the posthuman, the history of technology, objects, and things, modes of production, and circulations of global capital, to more scientific and speculative tenors such as artificial intelligence, body modification, prosthetics, digital and virtual lifeworlds.
The exhibition opens on August 12 and runs until September 23, 2023.
