Hypereikon, the duo formed by María Constanza Lobos and Sebastián Rojas, explores the blurred boundaries between the organic and the digital in the posthuman era. Their practice ranges from generative audiovisual landscapes to speculative archaeologies, questioning narratives about technology and nature. Conceiving AI as an “imaginative prosthesis,” they navigate the latent spaces of artificial cognition, transforming digital residues into artistic raw material. Hypereikon creates works that function as excavations of the present, revealing hidden dimensions of our hyperconnected reality. They explore digital materiality, non-linear temporality, and distributed agency, intertwining the human, the machinic, and the ecological in surprising configurations that challenge anthropocentric imagination.

Part of a group exhibition within the Festival of Creativity, Education, and AI. Organized by the Goethe-Institut in collaboration with Fundación Medifé, Artlab Academy, and the Delegation of the European Union, this collective exhibition delves into the transformative power of AI and its implications for creativity and learning.
As AI permeates all aspects of our lives, it undeniably influences traditional creative practices, challenging us to rethink established paradigms and imagine new models of engagement. This exhibition aims to address these changes by showcasing a diverse range of digital artworks that exemplify the evolving dialogue between human creativity and artificial intelligence.
The works presented here offer a glimpse into this new frontier. They challenge traditional notions of authorship, creativity, and interaction by integrating AI into the artistic process. Each piece reflects a unique exploration of how algorithms, machine learning, and digital innovation can enhance and redefine artistic expression.
