S()fia Braga

S()fia Braga is an Italian transmedia artist based in Vienna. Her work investigates the uses and misuses of new technologies to craft speculative fabulations that explore themes such as human and non-human collaboration, non-human agency, and transhumanism. In parallel, Braga’s research examines the concept of Interveillance, uncovering the hidden power dynamics embedded in the operational structures of centralized social media platforms and their sociological implications.

Platform Workshippers is a research-based project that maps the blurred boundaries between labor, control, and visibility within centralized social media platforms. It explores how users become both subjects and agents of participatory control, alternating between an active peer interaction and subject of wider systemic surveillance, and engage in invisible forms of free labor while navigating the tension between exposure and self-preservation.
