Chloe McFadden is an Australian artist and PhD candidate at the University of New South Wales School of Art & Design, working and making on Gadigal land. Her practice critically engages the predictive logics of machine learning through the protocols of tarot reading, creating new spaces to reflect on how our growing belief in algorithms shapes the futures we are able to imagine for ourselves.

Chloe’s work is responsive to the aesthetics, sites, discourses and protocols of algorithmic systems as they appear in contemporary techno-culture. Often process-led and research-driven, her projects unfold across a range of media—from live participatory performances and interactive installations to video works and digital images. She also regularly publishes written reflections as a way of communicating the methods, outcomes and conceptual frameworks underpinning her practice-based research.

Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally, including Music of The Sails at the Sydney Opera House (2023–24), Practices of Prediction at the Academy of Fine Arts Munich (2025), Drawspace Gallery (2024), AD Space (2023), Prop Gallery Ashfield (2022), UNSW Galleries A&D Annual (2021), and the Hornsby Remagine Art Prize (2019).

Recent and upcoming projects include her long paper What Does it Mean to /IMAGINE with GenAI? at ISEA Seoul (2025), her selection for Umbra Chromatica at The Wrong Biennale’s Digital Pavilion (2025–28), and her recent workshops and talks, such as Disrupting AI Images at the Academy of Fine Arts Munich (2024) and her contribution to the Creative Technologies Research Lab seminar on synthetic images at UNSW (2025).

Chloe graduated with First Class Honours and the University Medal from UNSW in 2021. She is currently a casual tutor at UNSW and works across various research labs and projects as a research assistant.
