Missing Jaya revolves around the search for disappeared Jaya among her home-found translucent furniture, continuing the artist's vain search in 2020-2021. In the post-pandemic era, people come out like mollusks emerging from their shells to rebuild trust and intimacy. Artificial intelligence, like the deep-sea pram bug, nourished itself by absorbing biometric inputs as its lair and nesting in the breeding ground of collective technology. Through finding Jaya, we will discover the contexts in fragmented news interwoven with faces, and witness a gigantic, public Tamagotchi - a mass-bred database of (in/) voluntary intelligence.
The work also offers a metacommentary on the compatibility of found-footage technique and generative images.
