In the MA thesis Dance with Bentham I am writing about surveillance systems that have become part of our daily life and about how we can use this surveillance technology to produce artwork. I am writing about virtual platforms and social networks that have formed with the rise of the internet and about new ways of exhibiting and connecting in the digital space. With the practial part of my MA, I am refering to artists from the field of video art, performance, internet art, installation art and also institutional critique. I am problematising the condition of a contemporary artist and his/hers entanglement in the art system, where the line between work and free time has become blurred. I am exploring the relationship between the artist and the art institution, the relationship between the body and space, new technologies and merging/interlacing of artistic mediums.
