Mónica Rikić focuses her artistic practice on creative coding and electronics, combining them with non-digital objects to craft interactive projects, robotic installations, and handmade electronic devices.

Hipertèlia is the term used in Catalan to describe the enlargement of an organ to the extent that it no longer fulfills its function. Cognitive technologies have become an overdeveloped organ, generating anxiety and uncertainty about the future. What agency do we have in defining this future? This exhibition suggests possible alternatives for the evolution of artificial intelligences through handmade electronic devices.

MÓNICA RIKIĆ is an electronic artist and creative coder, born and based in Barcelona. The general interest of her artistic practice lies in the development of alternative technologies through creative coding and electronics. Her proposals merge technology and philosophy through art, creating technological artifacts far from the need of any functionality or productivity, just for the sake of building critical devices that trigger collective thinking and discussion. Formally, her practice is based in producing handmade electronics objects and robots, that perform different concepts of her research scope, presenting themselves as theatrical devices. With these devices, she offers experiences that propose alternative ways of thinking about technologies, robotics and hardware. Through this process, her works aim to ‘question if’ and ‘illustrate how’ artistic research is a valid way to rethink and collaborate with the advancement of techno-scientific knowledge, providing new perspectives and generating unknown paths of exploration. She wants to present a future where art is necessary to achieve a profound transformation of the technological world we inhabit, as a form of experimental thought between philosophy and engineering.
