At the KTH Reactor Hall (Drottning Kristinas väg 51, 114 28 Stockholm)
The FemTech + Feminist Tech Exhibition brings together interdisciplinary artworks that critically engage with intimate health, data, and care from feminist and decolonial perspectives. Spanning media such as watercolor, cyanotype, wearable tech, AI, soft robotics, and sound, the exhibition puts FemTech (the industry's term for technologies for the "female" body) and Feminist Tech (a feminist perspective of technology) in conversation with one another. The artworks collectivley explore themes of intimate health, the vaginal microbiome, fertility tracking, and menstrual care, alongside broader investigations into consent, climate crisis, synthetic voice, and data ethics. Emphasizing open science, embodied approaches to data, and invisible labor, the works interrogate extractive and dominant technologies while proposing alternative, relational modes of designing with and for the body and the ecologies around us.
The evening will feature performances, interactive art and mingling with researchers and artists.
