My Lover the Server is an exhibition by the digital art duo Champagne Valentine (Anita Fontaine & Geoff Lillemon). The show explores the phenomenon of Internet romance which has exploded online in the last 5 years. Drawing on real digital communications with web stalkers, strangers and actual lovers and re-interpreting them for the Concrete gallery space (Amsterdam), the exhibition will feature a series of 4-6 digital flat-screens inside CNC-milled custom frames. Against a backdrop of dedicated wallpaper designed by the artists, the frames will feature looping animations and text-based works running continuously off memory cards, as well as 1-2 pieces that will be connected online to the outside world, inviting the public to remotely interact with the artwork. My Lover the Server transforms the artist’s canvas into a new form of cultural expression and offers an increasingly powerful interaction between viewer and artist.
