Sara Ludy - Daance Dange Daice

Daance Dange Daice is a video montage of AI generated dance images that connect into an expanded display of alienated joy and celebration, as if peering into another world’s party. Originally commissioned for Refraction Festival x Miami Art Week, this collection features 225 distinct works created to align with the rhythms of the dance music while reflecting our connection with each other after a long period of isolation. The title, Daance Dange Daice, comes from AI generated text anomalies of the word “Dance”. About the artist: Sara Ludy (b.1980, Orange, CA) is an American artist and composer working in a wide range of media including painting, AI, VR, video, photography, websites, installation, and sound. Through an interdisciplinary practice, hybrid forms emerge from the confluence of nature and simulation to explore notions of immateriality and being. Previous exhibitions of Ludy’s work include the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago, Vancouver Art Gallery, Whitney Museum of American Art, Berkeley Art Museum, and Künstlerhaus Bethanien. Her work has been featured in Modern Painters, The New York Times, Art Forum, Art in America, and Cultured Magazine. Sara lives and works in Placitas, New Mexico. A portion of the proceeds will go to supporting Rhizome’s Anniversary Benefit. Rhizome champions born-digital art and culture through commissions, exhibitions, scholarship, and digital preservation. Founded by artist Mark Tribe as an email discussion list including some of the first artists to work online, Rhizome has played an integral role in the history of contemporary art engaged with digital technologies and the internet.
