When Robots Die We Grieve Too | Winnipeg News

Emilie St-Hilaire’s haunting new exhibition “Objects of Fidelity” explores the emotional bonds we forge with artificial bodies—dolls, robots, and beyond—blurring the line between object and companion. Inspired by her PhD research on hyper-realistic reborn dolls, she delves into how design shapes our attachment, using a broken Nao robot displayed as “deceased” with flowers to ask: what does it mean for a machine to die? The show also features a towering sculpture of deconstructed porcelain dolls and a heat-sensitive doll that warms when approached, challenging us to question when an object earns our care.
