InAbsentia Digital Pavilion

/* Dreams Never End */

Today, March 31, 2026, the 7th edition of The Wrong Biennale officially closes its digital doors.

As we look back at the "vortex of data" we navigated since November, we remember that at the root of Art is the collective, not the ego. We have been the Keepers and Seers of a "monstrous genesis"—one of unnamed creation, where biological scripts and digital biomes merged into a living archive.

To our artists, our "co-conspirators" in this biological and arcane journey: thank you for grafting your spirit to the cosmos. You didn't just show work; you redefined existence itself.

The Living Archive of the Future - Works by:
Pat Badani, Enrico Cacciatori, Hybridoa, Sanae Moskitoo, MohammadAli Famori, Garnet Hertz, Pieter Nooten, Ellina Gennadievna, Nia Bo, Magenta, Danielle Siembieda, Valerio Veneruso.

Curated by:
Lino Mocerino, Francesca Giuliani, Ryota Matsumoto, Fausto Marcon.
(Ivrea, Foggia, Treviso, Tokyo).

Patronaged by CNR IRPI. This has been a vital intersection of art and environmental awareness, recognised and supported by the Research Institute for Geo-Hydrological Protection in Turin. A patronage that underscores the importance of transdisciplinary dialogue: InAbsentia proves that artistic interpretation can serve as a companion to scientific monitoring, transforming data into empathy and risk into awareness.

The "hum of the machine dream" remains. The glitch is eternal. And Dreams Never End.

See you in the next mutation.

/* TT6 London: An Interspecies Translation */

The creation of the audioreactive sphere for Pieter Nooten’s "TT6 London" stands as a pure experiment in translation: mapping the bioseignals of London’s ancient oaks—meticulously gathered by Bert Barten—into a generative digital form.

Developed throughout intense sessions in December 2025, the project emerged from a rigorous dialogue between biological data and machine logic. The systems integration between Three.js and AI-driven orchestration allowed the unraveling of complex visual structures able to redefine the boundaries of digital landscape.

In this data vortex, art transcends individual ego to become a collective act: a Digital Biome where the organic and the synthetic converge.

The future is a breathing archive.

/* The Digital Biome */

We are entering the final two weeks of The Wrong Biennale, and the energy around "InAbsentia" is higher than ever!

To celebrate this final stretch, we are excited to share a special feature: an insightful interview with the artist Danielle Siembieda-Gribben, conducted by Fausto Marcon.

In this conversation, they dive deep into the concept of the "Polar Reversal" and the evolution of the digital biome, exploring the core themes that have defined our journey in Venice this year.

As we count down the last 14 days, we want to thank everyone who has visited and supported the project. If you haven't seen it yet, now is the time!

"Art is the instrument that allows us to sense the frequency of a changing world."

/* A Continuous Emergence */

Is infinity a location or a condition? Mohammad Ali Famori, creator of the Infinite Realms for "The Ecosystem of Us," discusses with our Fausto Marcon how code, Perlin noise, and audio forces perform continuous emergence in his new work. Discover his philosophy on relational existence and why "nothing exists alone."

A Continuous Emergence 8 Dicembre 20258 Dicembre 2025 Techniqua Mohammad Ali Famori on Code and Cosmology Mohammad Ali Famori, a key contributor to the “Ecosystem of Us” installation, delves into the philosophical and technical underpinnings of his work, exploring how digital visualization can e...

/* The Fragile Code */

What happens when highly personal human stories meet invisible genetic code? Karolina Żyniewicz's installation Signs of the Times uses discarded masks to explore the tension between digital control and the microbiome of memory.

Discover why the work’s fading text and Sisyphean performance are an urgent "Geometry of Alarm" against the societal rush to forget.

Read the full, fascinating interview and explore the intersection of art, science, and the pandemic's lasting residue:

/* The Rising Tide */

In this exclusive interview, conducted by curator Fausto Marcon, artist Nia Bo discusses her profound project, The Rising Tide, where the Thames Estuary's pulse writes itself as an interference against our technical apparatus.

Nia Bo connects deep listening, the harsh reality of sea-level rise data, and the fragile practice of witnessing loss. She challenges the idea of resilience, embracing Donna Haraway's philosophy: "Resilience may lie in staying with the trouble."

Find out how locality becomes a conduit for the "Ecosystem of Us" and why the final image of a jellyfish signals an irreversible, planetary 'cut-up.'

The Rising Tide 6 Novembre 20259 Dicembre 2025 Techniqua When the Digital Glitch Mourns the Shoreline The following conversation with Nia Bo, (aka Stefania Boiano) — whose work, The Rising Tide, uses the tidal cycle of the Thames Estuary as a Living Archive — is a vital document for our manifest...

/* Eulogy for the sick Perfection */

We present a look into the process of Ellina Gennadievna, whose artwork exploits a singular vulnerability in artificial intelligence models: their inability to perfectly simulate light traveling through water.

Instead of using classic ray tracing to achieve an impeccable rendering, Ellina uses language (prompts) as the engine and embraces the artifacts and the "deformation of reality" (a kind of Monstrous manifesting in the code) that results.

Why this choice? As the artist explains in her interview: "As long as caustics 'crack' the smooth digital scene, the difference between virtual, digital, and real remains visible." The caustic is not an error, but a sign of hope that keeps the gap open and illuminates the complex, heterogeneous ethics of the Digital Biome.

Well, it is not about maximum precision, but about sufficiency: the artist sees herself as one who "cuts paths through the overgrown vegetation" of the AI code, collaborating with opacity as if it were an ecosystem.

The full interview with Ellina Gennadievna, featuring her deep reflections on the ethics of simulation and the artist's role, is now available on our website.

Eulogy for the sick Perfection 2 November 20252 November 2025 Techniqua The following conversation with Ellina Gennadievna—whose work explores caustics as “seeds of light” and utilizes a Methodology of Imperfection within the Digital Biome—is a fundamental document for understanding the ethi...

...so, the Ballroom is On and we are officially open at The Wrong Biennale. But today, the day after the launch, is not about the grand announcement.

Our focus remains underground. While someone may trumpet their success, our work is defined by the necessary, quiet labour: finalizing missing artworks, integrating last-minute edits, and refining contents and solutions. This continuous, subterranean effort won't win us any prizes here or in the hereafter.

We are not here for the fanfare. We are here to work—to quietly contact artists and foster ephemeral, digital communities and processes.

The real work starts now.

Enjoy the ArtWorks by Pat Badani, Magenta Eene, Valerio Veneruso, Ellina Gennadievna, Sanae Moskitoo, Enrico Cacciatori, Garnet Hertz, NiaBo, MohammadAli Famori.

Curated by Lino Mocerino, Francesca Giuliani, Ryota Matsumoto, Fausto Marcon. Ivrea, Foggia, Treviso, Italy. Tokyo, Japan.

More to come.
