SABOTAGE by Italian artist Salvatore Vitale (1986), considers the human cost of the gig economy. Through photographs, videos and installations, he points to the contradictions of digital capitalism, where the promise of greater freedom and flexibility simply masks the persistent inequalities of post-colonialism.

Teaming up with freelance workers in South Africa, Vitale asserts the primacy of human labor and proposes ways of countering the systemic exploitation underpinning platform-based work.

Vitale currently lives in Zurich. His works are held in several public and private collections and have been shown in contemporary art museums and festivals around the world.
