Digital Trace: Part I is a group exhibition exploring presence in the digital world and the fragile boundaries between visibility and invisibility, intimacy and exposure, the personal and the collective.
Through everyday gestures, messages, searches, and screens, we continuously leave digital traces. These traces form a silent archive where inner experience is translated into data, code, and technical images. The exhibition reflects on what remains truly personal when presence is mediated by algorithms, archived by systems, and endlessly reproduced.
The participating artists work with themes of digital presence, safety, vulnerability, and the evolving relationship between human beings and technology. The exhibition addresses questions of control, governance, and algorithmic management, examining how systems of regulation, search, and recommendation shape both behavior and visual language.

A key focus of Digital Trace is the poetics of technical images within contemporary digital culture. Artists explore how meaning is searched for within images, interfaces, and code, and how algorithms influence the formation, circulation, and perception of visual material. Processual approaches, recombination of files, repetition, and fragmentation become artistic methods that reveal the constructed nature of digital reality.
In many works, the personal archive transforms into a dialogue between the digital and the collective. Individual files, memories, and visual traces are reassembled within shared systems, exposing the tension between personal expression and the repetition or loss of individuality.
Digital Trace: Part I opens the exhibition as an ongoing sequence. Subsequent parts will continue to expand the project, responding to the volume of artistic practices and exploring new perspectives on digital presence, memory, and technological mediation.
