Description

As part of Marjan Moghaddam’s celebrated #Arthacks series, the short looped video comprising Glitched Odalisque Multibody from Frieze London 2019 (2023) is a new creation for the artist’s solo exhibition at ANNKA KULTYS PHYGITAL. The work centers on Moghaddam’s #GlitchedOdalisque, one of the artist’s original 3D CG characters, here constructed as a kind of mutating exquisite corpse, its multiple bodies collapsing into one. The dancing figure is flanked by original animated and 3D voxelized paintings by Moghaddam, including two AI-generated artworks and a still from #GlitchGoddess, that have been superimposed onto the walls of the sales booth. Working with found imagery shot at Frieze art fair in London by the artist’s friend, the late British artist Duggie Fields, Moghaddam hacks this recording with her own artistic interventions, creating a hybrized environment that feels neither entirely real or 3D rendered. The Glitched Odalisque in this work likewise rejects such binaries, its colonial figure being reconceptualized by the artist, who is an immigrant of middle-eastern descent.
