ITALIENISCHER INSTALLATIONSKÜNSTLER ESTHER STOCKER SCHAFFT ERSTAUNLICHE GEOMETRISCHE UMGEBUNGEN, DIE DER BESUCHER HÄUFIG ENTDECKEN KANN. Die Konstruktion jedes Stücks scheint einer Art seltsamer Gleichung zu folgen, was zu ungewöhnlichen linearen Mustern und Flugzeugen führt, die den physischen Schritt vollständig transformieren.

isabel nolan

Turning Point
Isabel Nolan’s artwork utilizes textiles, steel rods, and primary colored paint to approach questions of anxiety, current events, and the human condition. Her work has a particularly erudite quality, with materials teased and propped to mimic symbolism and images in literature, historical texts, science, and art. Nolan’s work has been exhibited throughout her native Ireland and wider Europe, including at the Irish Museum of Modern Art and the Musée d’art modern de Saint Etienne. With her first solo exhibition in the United States fast approaching, artnet News caught up with the scholarly artist to hear about her early diagrams of brains and ideas she is currently entertaining for her next body of work.

Lin Hwai-min

Formosa
“Formosa relies heavily on words and poetry for its inspiration and imagery. It traces Taiwan’s history from the 16th century, when Portuguese sailors upon seeing the island exclaimed, “Formosa!” meaning “Beautiful!” Poems appear on a white scrim above a white floor. In the beginning, the poems are whole. The black Chinese characters are neatly aligned. Gradually, however, the poems slide away and the characters enlarge, slowly disappear, become abstract, pour like a stream, peel away, and break apart. A chaotic jumble appears. To some extent, the writing dances.” Carmel Morgan

Piano Phase

Not having two pianos at his disposal, Reich experimented by first recording a piano part on tape, and then trying to play mostly in sync with the recording, albeit with slight shifts, or phases, with occasional re-alignments of the twelve successive notes against each other. Reich found the experience satisfying, showing that a musician can phase with concentration.

NERI OXMAN AND MIT DEVELOP PROGRAMMA

Агуаходжа
Разнообразие форм и поведения этих предметов отражает то, как они выражены в природе, где такой материал, как хитин, может составлять как экзоскелет ракообразных, так и клеточные стенки грибов. В отличие от стали и бетона, композитные материалы, образованные из этих материалов, находятся в постоянном диалоге с окружающей средой. Некоторые артефакты демонстрируют резкие изменения формы в ответ на влагу и тепло, в то время как другие темнеют или светлеют в зависимости от времени года. Некоторые из них хрупкие и прозрачные со стекловидной текстурой, а другие остаются гибкими и жесткими, как кожа. Несмотря на появляющееся разнообразие, эти артефакты обладают одним общим качеством: в жизни их свойства опосредуются влажностью; при смерти они диссоциируют в воде и возвращаются в экосистему.

Eins zu eins
Das Kunstwerk 1:1 wurde als 3D-Ambiente entwickelt, d.h. eine im Raum platzierte 3D-Charakteranimation (3D-Animationsprojektion). Die Animation präsentiert den Schatten einer unsichtbaren virtuellen Figur oder einer virtuellen Figur, die auf der “Gegenseite” der virtuellen Ebene platziert ist. Der Titel des Kunstwerks „1:1“ ist das Symbol für „Vollmaßstab“. Dies bezieht sich auch auf die Beziehung zwischen zwei Entitäten, wie “eins zu eins”.

FILE SÃO PAULO 2025: SYNTHETIKA – Art and Technology – WORKSHOP
Electronic Language International Festival

 

 

Tecnosoma — Sensitive Circuits in the Flesh of the Machine – Brazil

In this workshop, participants will explore the fusion of body, technology, and artificial intelligence, creating interactive experiences with capacitive sensors and real-time generative models. Inspired by the concept of the Technosome—the machine as a sensitive, pulsating organism—the workshop explores how human touch can generate electrical signals that trigger audiovisual, auditory, and light responses. Microcontrollers (Arduino and ESP32), generative AI, and sensory interactivity will be covered.

BIO

Artist, researcher, and developer specializing in AI, machine learning, and IoT, he has worked for over 10 years with interactive art, generative systems, and sensory installations. He participated in the Artropocode residency (Spain) and the Spontaneous Combustion Residency (London), exploring cyberurban performances and locative media.

MAURIZIO CATTELAN

Маурицио Каттелана
The Ninth Hour

“Una delle opere più note di Cattelan, La nona ora rappresenta Papa Giovanni Paolo II che muore a terra dopo essere stato bloccato da un meteorite. L’immagine mediatica del papa è amplificata nella scultura con la sua espressione di sofferenza. Il titolo del il lavoro allude al momento in cui Cristo grida: “Perché mi hai abbandonato? “e muore in croce. Maurizio Cattelan fa cadere sfacciatamente una meteora a somiglianza di Papa Giovanni Paolo II. Sembra suggerire che anche l’uomo più santo della tradizione cattolica romana possa non essere al sicuro dalla sfortuna. L’opera è stata interpretata in vari Alcuni lo leggono come un commento sulla reputazione della Chiesa cattolica di nutrire scandali sotto la sua superficie morale. Altri lo hanno visto come un suggerimento che anche le sedi di potere più consolidate possono diventare vulnerabili. La Chiesa è un’istituzione stordita e cambiata dal nostro sempre più mondo secolarizzato. Il Papa potrebbe essere un simbolo di resilienza e reinvenzione; una chiamata a trovare nuovi linguaggi affinché la fede e la cultura perenni sopravvivano e si adattino “.

Thom Kubli

Brazil Now
BRAZIL NOW is a composition that addresses increasing militarization and surveillance within urban areas. Its geographical and acoustic reference is São Paulo, the largest megacity in Latin America. The piece is based on field recordings that capture the symptoms of a Latin American variant of turbo-capitalism with its distinctive acoustic features. Eruptive public demonstrations on the streets are often accompanied by loud, carnivalesque elements. These are controlled by a militarized infrastructure, openly demonstrating a readiness to deploy violence. The sonic documents are analyzed by machine learning algorithms searching for acoustic memes, textures, and rhythms that could be symptomatic for predominant social forces. The algorithmic results are then used as a base for a score and its interpretation through a musical ensemble. The piece drafts a phantasmatic auditory landscape built on the algorithmic evaluation of urban conflict zones.

Jonas Pequeno

Foley
Huxley-Parlour gallery presents a solo exhibition of new audiovisual and installation works by the London-based artist Jonas Pequeno. Comprising of three works, a kinetic sound installation Foley, a CGI video Ocean Scene Composite and a photographing print, and the act of appearing, the exhibition considers incongruity in digital fictional constructs. The title of the exhibition, /ˈfəʊli/, is a phonetic transcription of the word foley, a film-making technique used to manually mimic everyday sound effects in post-production when props do not acoustically match their real life counterparts. Influenced by the concept of foley, Pequeno’s work features an audiovisual installation that incorporates microphones and balloons swayed by a fan, replicating the sound of crashing ocean waves.
