Dronehead Alison@Nick Shanks

Alison and Nick Shanks

A Collaboration

We first began to make robotic sculptures together in 2019.

This sculpture, “ Dronehead” 2025, is our second collaboration.

 I made the ceramic Porcelain pieces and Nick designed and constructed the metal structure and the robotics.

 “Dronehead” illustrates that, as unwitting subjects, we are constantly monitored, surveyed and judged by biased algorithms. We are bombarded by propaganda, misinformation and disinformation.

 This bombardment just drones on.
