Kevin Abosch's "VOTE" invites viewers to participate as witting and unwitting voters in a decision-making process, through interaction with a series of chalky, white, wall-mounted, monolithic structures.
Each monolith, with its scarred surface, bears alphanumerics on two opposing sides, representing different voting options for the viewer to consider. The act of choosing is made physical and explicit, as visitors interact passively with these symbols, drawing them into a silent dialogue of choice and consequence.
At NOISE Media Art Fair, the artist embeds himself discreetly near 3 “voting booths” observing and collecting data pertaining to how “citizens” engage with the “voting booths.” In some instances, participants knowingly interact with the alphanumerics, their choices clear and deliberate. In other cases, the process remains unknown to them, with their unconscious behaviors and movements subtly interpreted as votes. At the close of the fair, Abosch will take this largely speculative and incomplete data, presenting 3 colorful and detailed visual abstractions that will be minted as ERC-721 Ethereum NFTs.
"VOTE" is an exploration of the visible and the hidden in our decision-making processes. It questions the nature of choice, agency, and the unseen influences in our lives. These works stand as a thought-provoking commentary on the act of voting, both in the literal sense and in the broader context of our everyday choices.
Abosch challenges viewers to reflect on the impact of their actions, both conscious and unconscious. The exhibition, in its stark simplicity and interactive nature, becomes a powerful space for introspection and dialogue about the choices we make and the forces that shape them.
