Description

Ania Catherine and Dejha Ti of Operator join NFTuesdayLA x Vellum LA to speak about their experiential art practice, approach to working with technology, and their exploration of where conceptual art, installation, performance, and the blockchain meet. ABOUT OPERATOR Ania Catherine and Dejha Ti are an award-winning experiential artist duo who founded their collaborative art practice, known as Operator, in 2016. Referred to as “the two critical contemporary voices on digital art’s international stages” (Clot Magazine) and “LGBT power couple” (Flaunt), their expertises collide in large-scale conceptual works merging environments, technology, and performance art. Rooted in the understanding that immersion is not only a physical state but also an emotional one, their approach employs nuance in scale, producing a feeling instead of a spectacle. They've been speakers at Christie’s Art+Tech Summit, Art Basel, BBC Click, MIT Open Doc Lab, Bloomberg ART+TECHNOLOGY, SXSW, Ars Electronica. UNSIGNED DIGITAL BILLBOARD SHOWCASE In collaboration with Vellum LA and Standard Vision, NFTuesdayLA is proud to present the first public exhibition of Unsigned in the United States by Operator and Anika Meier. Unsigned is a conceptual collaborative action that directly responds to a finding by Dr. Helen Gorrill, researcher and author of Women Can’t Paint, that the addition of a signature by a woman on an artwork devalues it to the extent that “female artists are more likely to leave their work unsigned.” Unsigned is a collection of “100 signatures from women and non-binary artists created to reverse the current negative value of the signatures through their transformation into artworks themselves.” The entire collection of signatures will be featured on the large scale digital facade at the Courtyard Marriott LA Live in DTLA for a two week showcase until the end of 2022. unsigned.art Instagram: @operator________ @anika Twitter: @operator_______ @postanika #unsigned Photograph: Privacy Portraits by Operator at Proof of People (London, July 2022) NFTuesdayLA program flyers are designed by Sunny Chen.
