Who controls our data, personal sovereignty, and political freedom? Answers are offered by DATAS: The Data and the Sovereign, an exhibition in which Czech and international artists explore in their works how computing technologies, automation, and digital infrastructures undermine personal and state sovereignty. The beasts that threaten us today are unlikely to be roaring lions; rather, they are algorithmic systems, data infrastructures, and AI-driven forms of governance that operate beyond effective democratic oversight. This group exhibition confronts one of the defining struggles of the coming decades that is profoundly shaping human agency: the battle for sovereignty in an age when data and computation increasingly exceed legal and political control. As algorithmic systems influence public discourse, automate and manipulate decision-making, and shape the conduct of war, the foundations of democracy are being rewritten in code. Bringing together voices in art, philosophy, and technology the exhibition examines how personal and national self-determination might persist amid the forces of surveillance capitalism and authoritarianism.
