Digital Art Centre based in London exploring the impact of technology in society through exhibitions, workshops, research and public engagement.
Cute, pink and glossy - familiar and uncanny. Hear what visitors have been saying about Soft Bodies, Cold Machines and book your place for our upcoming exhibition tour.
Step into Ambie Drew’s [@ambiedrew] hyper-feminised ‘girl-bedroom’, a metaphor for today’s internet culture. Moving between interactive installations and film, Soft Bodies, Cold Machines explores what it means to grow up online in a world shaped by targeted beauty ads and AI-generated imagery, where the boundaries between our online and offline selves begin to blur.

Hotel Generation returns for its 9th edition, our annual artist development programme which mentors the next generation of UK-based digital artists.
The four participants selected out of an open call are paired with a mentor to develop an exhibition proposal for arebyte.
At the end of the 3-month programme, a panel of judges selects the winning proposal, which is then realised as a solo exhibition at arebyte Digital Art Centre.
Introducing the 2026 cohort:
✷Alya Hatta [@alyahatta] (b. 1999, Selangor, Malaysia) is an interdisciplinary artist based between London and Kuala Lumpur. She graduated from Goldsmiths, University of London, and completed the MA Painting programme at the Royal College of Art in 2023. Working across new media, sculpture, and painting, Hatta draws on personal and historical archives to explore Southeast Asian identity and the colourful intimacies of diasporic life.
✷Harry Payne [@hary.art_] is an artist working across emerging technology and immersive installations, exploring the layered timelines of human experience, personal and collective, remembered and speculative. Rooted in their identity as a queer, working-class artist, Payne’s work interrogates whose stories are preserved, whose are overlooked, and what kinds of futures those narratives enable.
✷Freddie Sanders [@@f_sanders_] is a London-based artist combining sculpture and video game-based work. His practice explores complex systems, mainly through the relationships between ecological and non-human agency, digital infrastructure, and the lived, embodied experience of navigating both.
✷Mary Tallontire [@@marytallontire] is a digital artist creating immersive artworks and digital games. Inspired by solar punk, glitch art and worlding, they feature forests, plants and environmental themes in contexts across time and space, creating worlds current, speculative and historic, juxtaposing natural elements with the digital.
Stay tuned for updates on their progress!

THIS SATURDAY: As part of Soft Bodies, Cold Machines, we are hosting an afternoon of talks and performances. Artist Ambie Drew will present the research and creative process behind the exhibition, followed by theorist Alex Quicho’s Girlstack Performance Lecture, exploring the “Girl” as a technological and social construct through theory and speculation. Throughout the event, sound artist and performer Giuli Dal Lago will move through the space as Jennifer, a latex-masked doll character, embodying themes of depersonalisation, service and the objectified body explored within the exhibition.
Ambie Drew (b. 1996) is a multidisciplinary artist based in Worcester. Her practice interrogates how digital consumerism and artificial intelligence shape the construction of gender and female identity online. Working across moving image, sculptural installation, and text, Ambie adopts a hyperfeminised alter ego to explore the consequences of living in a heavily mediated world where the physical and digital exist in constant flux. Incorporating obsolete technologies, her work reflects on how intimacy, memory, and reality are entangled with internet culture and machine-driven desire.
Alex Quicho is a theorist based in London. Her practice incorporates critical writing, performative lectures, and moving images to develop novel ways of understanding life within technological systems. She is the author of Girl Intelligence (2025, Aksioma) and Small Gods (2021, Zero Books).
Giuli Dal Lago is a London-based sound artist and performer who works at the intersection of sound and performance art. Giuli reclaims the body as a site of political struggle—a space for advocating gender identity and advancing queer celebration and liberation.

Worldbuilding curator Helen Starr [@themechatroniclibrary] shares her take on Soft Bodies, Cold Machines by Ambie Drew [@ambiedrew].
Soft Bodies, Cold Machines is a digital art exhibition exploring AI, internet culture, beauty standards, and female identity through interactive installations and immersive two-channel film.

Soft Bodies, Cold Machines is now open at arebyte Digital Art Centre, a solo exhibition by Ambie Drew [@ambiedrew].
Step into an in-between immersive world that feels both familiar and unsettling. A teenage girl’s fantasy bedroom unfolds as a hyper-feminised nostalgic space — pink, glossy, and uncanny — a metaphor for today’s internet culture.
A distorted Sailor Moon transformation loops on a pink television, surrounded by cutesy trinkets, glowing screens and AI-generated imagery, reflecting a world where girlhood is shaped by targeted beauty ads, and identity is caught between how we see ourselves and how we are seen online.
Across the galleries, a luminous vanity altar reveals a ‘girl’ trapped in the reflective surface; a ringing rotary phone invites you into a conversation, drawing you into Ambie’s digitised memories. Together, they trace a world where identity and desire become entangled, and where the content we consume begins to consume us.

A distorted Sailor Moon transformation loops on a pink television, surrounded by cutesy trinkets, glowing screens and AI-generated imagery, reflecting a world where girlhood is shaped by targeted beauty ads, and identity is caught between how we see ourselves and how we are seen online.
Across the galleries, a luminous vanity altar reveals a ‘girl’ trapped in the reflective surface; a ringing rotary phone invites you into a conversation, drawing you into Ambie’s digitised memories. Together, they trace a world where identity and desire become entangled, and where the content we consume begins to consume us.
🗓Exhibition 17 Apr -2 Aug | Wed - Sun, 12- 6pm
📍 arebyte Digital Art Centre, 25-27 Camden Road, NW1 9LN
🎟️ Free Entry

OPENING NEXT WEEK: Hyper-feminine aesthetics, the capitalist fetish for cuteness, and digital consumerism -where identity is performed and consumed.
Curator Pita Arreola [@[pitarreola] talks us through Ambie Drew’s upcoming exhibition at arebyte Digital Art Centre, Soft Bodies Cold Machines.
Ambie Drew is a hyper-feminised constructed alter ego developed by the artist to interrogate online identity, digital consumerism and gender. Within a fluid space between avatar and archive, reality and simulation, Ambie is both subject and object, presenting as a glossy vessel shaped by the aesthetics of internet girlhood.

How does digital culture shape female identity and growing up online?
arebyte presents Soft Bodies, Cold Machines, a solo exhibition by artist Ambie Drew [@ambiedrew]
Through newly commissioned interactive installations and film, the artist interrogates what it means to grow up online in a world shaped by targeted advertising and AI-generated imagery, confronting the impossibility of disentangling oneself from our curated digital persona.
To create this new body of work, Ambie purchased and tested popular beauty gadgets promoted to her through social media ads. The artworks that emerge from this process reflect both the physical and psychological impact of living amongst a constant stream of images and consumption.

View Instagram Stories in Secret
The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
