Cyberdelia

Interactive work by Sabrina Ratté

Cyberdelia was conceived during an artist residency at the Sporobole center to explore the creative potential of artificial intelligence. The installation consists of 22 videos accompanied by soundscapes co-composed with AI by Roger Tellier-Craig, as well as 22 cards inspired by the major arcana of the tarot. Visitors are invited to consult the oracle by selecting a card and placing it on a reader, triggering the projection of the corresponding video. This interaction offers a new perspective on the posed question, blending chance and intention in a dialogue with the unknown.

The project examines our relationship with AI and its ability to reflect human psychological projections. Its title evokes a mental landscape shaped by the interaction between humans and machines while paying homage to the cyberculture of the 1980s-1990s, a period when technology was envisioned as a means to transcend space, time, and materiality. By integrating the unpredictable transformations generated by AI while preserving the artist’s aesthetic, the work reveals visions that are both sublime and unsettling, reflecting an Anthropocene-marked future. Cyberdelia seeks to re-enchant reality by weaving connections between technology and nature, individual destiny and collective experience.

 

This work is presented as part of the SAT’s Winter Terrace programming, from January 16 to March 8, Tuesday to Saturday, 5pm to 10pm, with free admission for all!

 

SAT would like to thank the City of Montréal for its financial support of SAT the Winter Terrace project.

Ratté

Sabrina Ratté is a Canadian artist based in Montreal. Her formal approach serves as the foundation for the creation of ecosystems that manifest across various platforms, from interactive installations to series of videos, digital prints, sculptures, or virtual Reality. Exploring the convergence of technology and biology, the interplay between materiality and virtuality, and the speculative evolution of our environment, her work is influenced by the realms of science fiction, philosophy, and theoretical writings. Her work has been exhibited in institutions such as Laforet Museum in Tokyo, the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, Centre Pompidou in Paris, the PHI Center in Montreal, the Max Ernst Museum in Brühl, and the Museum of the Moving Image in New York. Notably, her work is part of the collection at the Montreal Contemporary Art Museum. Ratté went on to receive the Sobey Art Award in Canada in 2020.
