The edition Emotions go to Work is part of a series of drawings described by the artist a ‘taxonomies of emotions’. The series started from the idea that as more and more of our lives are stored online, data will start to take on monstrous and pseudo human properties. Or as American IT company IBM puts it: “we have entered the cognitive era".
Zoe Beloff (1958, Scotland) lives and works in New York. In 2010 she presented her exhibition Dreamland: The Coney Island Amateur Psychoanalytic Society and its Circle, 1926-1972 in KIOSK. Beloff works with a wide range of media including film, installation and drawing. Her artistic interest lies in finding ways to graphically manifest the unconscious processes of the mind. Therefore her role as an artist can be considered as an interface between the real and the imaginary.
