MEGAN WILLIAMS AND SHEUNG YIU. (INTER) FACES OF PREDICTIONS

By analysing his own face, Yiu demonstrates how both historical belief systems and modern algorithmic procedures reproduce similar biases and stereotypical assumptions. The project invites critical reflection on how we interpret faces and the assumptions underlying these interpretations. By connecting historical and contemporary discourses, archival material and his own photographic work, as well as technological methods and artistic practice, Yiu builds a bridge between past and present, art and science.
