This solo exhibition by Indian artist reflects on digital culture, gender and technocapitalism, as seen through her lens from the Global South.
The phrase “Global South” generally refers to the nations of Central America, South America, Africa, the Middle East and most of Asia. The term “technocapitalism” refers to changes in economics associated with the emergence of new technology. This exhibit’s title includes the common abbreviation for the company Microsoft (“MS”).
Across video, installation, and performance, Baid investigates themes of loneliness, isolation, and the feminization of labor, while simultaneously subverting these ideas through appropriation and comedy. In doing so, she uses humor as a tool against capitalism, and challenges the very power structures we exist within by providing new and irreverent perspectives around contemporary workplace culture.
