(jury statement)

“U vrijeme neizbrisivog pamćenja digitalnih zapisa, terora cookiesa i kirurški precizne predikcije korisničkih preferencija pomoću marketinških Internet alata, projekt je ponuđena platforma koja pomoću dark weba i otvorenog koda pruža mogućnost stvaranja i izlaganja umjetničkih djela bez korporativne i institucionalne kontrole. Dostupan svima, „Pivilion“ je živo tkivo koje umjetnicima pruža dragocjeni prostor slobode.”

Notes on Autonomy @ ParadigmShifts 2021 Art & Worklab
