The opening will be on March 2 from 17:00 to 19:30.

The topics that excite the author of the exhibition "Digital Archeology" can be deciphered in the titles of the series of works created over the past 8 years: TransOrganic, Para Bellum, Order, Posthuman, Paleomatic Monologues and Prayers to the latest series - Bunker City and Zero City. As Velizara Ivanova emphasizes in her analysis:
Combining works dating back to 2014, Digital Archeology reflects Philip Popov's continuing focus on the posthumanism and transhumanism, confronting technology and our uncertain future and insight into the way machines are woven into our tomorrow's world. "
