Final Presentation

As a way of concluding our project Digital F(r)ictions, done in the framework of a digital residency at the Museo de Arte Moderno de Bogotá MAMBO, we presented the final result at the museum on Friday 16th of May.

Our interactive, AI-driven web piece reimagines Colombian territory through the lens of its art.

This project overlays the MAMBO collection with Colombia’s ecological layers to generate a new, fictional map that resists data homogenization and embraces plural, decolonial imaginaries.

By fine-tuning generative AI on four artistic collections (pre-Hispanic, colonial, modern, and street art) we created four distinct visual interpretations for each artwork in the Mambo collection. This opens a space of critical friction and multiplicity, challenging mainstream AI’s cultural biases and proposing new modes of digital representation grounded in Latin American thought.

We’re incredibly grateful to Susana Vargas-Mejía and MAMBO for hosting us and to all who engaged in the conversation.

We will soon be launching publicly the website, stay tuned!
