“Robotocene” contains the following artworks by France Cadet:
The exhibition “Robotocene” traces upheavals, from man’s disastrous impact on nature and biodiversity (“Dodo”), through the exploitation of animals for agri-food purposes (“Kentucky 31”), to the advent of substitute robots. France Cadet shows us creatures that suffer (“Dolly”) and become increasingly alive, robots with digestive mechanisms (“The dog of Vaucanson”) or biological organs (“Robotic dog anatomy”), even endowed with emotions and inter-species attachment (“Digital romance”).
