Hrdinové a hrdinky budoucí práce (1/2)

“Heroes of Future Labour”

Created as part of Brno Art Open 2026, this work responds to a time in which artificial intelligence and automation are increasingly transforming human work. Drawing on the imagery of Socialist Realism, which once celebrated factory workers as the heroes of their era, it shifts this familiar visual language into a near-future world where humans find themselves in conflict with machines. Through a first-person video game perspective, the work questions what role human agency can still play in a world where technology increasingly governs labour, bodies, and ecosystems.
