Within the exhibition "Happiness," Amy presents a variety of medications, including illicit drugs, painkillers, and antidepressants. The artist navigates the boundary between the artificial and the authentic and, through the robot, tells the audience how we can influence serotonin and dopamine levels, inviting people to think about the different levels of artificiality, passing between the perceptions of a robot - a symbol of artificial life and allowing people to shape their perception of reality.
