About Silent Supper
Questioning the Future of Human interactions
Silent Supper, by Milena ZeVu, is a thought-provoking single-channel video that digs deep into the contemporary intersection of art, technology, and the human condition.
This work offers a rich and multifaceted exploration of the impact of Artificial Intelligence on our lives prompting us to reflect on the consequences of our growing immersion in a future world shaped by algorithms.
The ArtWalks canvases, displayed for the first time in their entirety at this exhibition, were created in Venice between April and November 2024. Messages to the question: "What does being a human being mean to me?" in various languages, were left by some of the more than 12,000 visitors to the exhibition from various countries. These canvases are a mirror of the world in which we live.
The video work Silent Supper is a finalist in the selection of 10,000 works, at the Arte Laguna Prize exhibition in Venice November/December 2024 at Arsenale Nord.
