Khoj International Artists’ Association is presenting Are You Human?, a two-site international exhibition that examines the increasingly porous boundaries between bodies, machines, and public space. Opening on January 30, the exhibition will be on view till February 28, 2026, at Khoj Studios, New Delhi, with a parallel public presentation at DLF Avenue Mall, Saket, till February 10, 2026.
Bringing together Indian and international artists, Are You Human? reflects on how technology reshapes identity, intimacy, labour, and everyday life. Moving beyond the idea of the body and the machine as opposing forces, the exhibition approaches them as entangled—probing how bodies become sites of data extraction, how interfaces encode bias, and how public spaces are increasingly shaped by invisible systems of surveillance and automation.
Rooted in questions of gender, caste, ecology, and democracy, the exhibition asks what it means to be human in the 2020s and beyond, amid the rise of AI, deepfakes, and immersive media. It also foregrounds resistance—exploring feminist coding practices, collective action, and alternative digital imaginaries emerging from vulnerable and marginalised bodies.
The exhibition is accompanied by Notes from the Digital Underground: Bodies–Machines–Publics, a two-day symposium conceptualised by Khoj with Mila T. Samdub, to be held from January 31 to February 1, 2026, at Goethe-Institut/Max Mueller Bhavan, New Delhi. The symposium brings together artists, technologists, activists, and scholars to critically engage with India’s uneven digital landscape through panels, discussions, and public conversations.
When: January 30 – February 28
Where: Khoj Studios, S-17, Khirkee Extension, New Delhi; DLF Avenue Mall, Saket
