‘I’m interested in creating moments of sensitivity, moments when our defenses are down and we are open to new things. moments of powerful concentration. … I create zones, put forward pictures, show processes that touch the viewer, that invoke associations on various levels, transport people into a different state, so that things hidden may become visible, accessible, opening up possibilities – to demonstrate something that is not said and cannot be said, but that is’.

Nothing of This is Ours

In the multiplayer game installation ‘Nothing of This is Ours’, visitors can immerse themselves in the mystic landscapes, graphic patterns and polygon characters. A journey without a destination, exploring with pure instinct. Alex offers the visitors a closer look at the artistic, innovative possibilities of the art game. The game as a contemporary medium, where the newest technique and art come together and enrich the one who takes the time to play the game. Alex invites the visitor to play in M0Bi, individually or collectively, experienced and inexperienced!”

lace works
Her making focuses on feminine objects and materials. Lace, veils, undergarments and hair adornment speak not only of womanhood, but also of the duality of human nature. Lace speaks of purity and sexuality, it reveals and conceals, it is humble, yet gluttonous in its ornamental overindulgence; lace is the ultimate dichotomy.

EVAN PENNY
Retrato do artista como ele (não) será
Essas esculturas têm impressionado inúmeros visitantes que olham nos olhos das esculturas, acreditando que a qualquer momento elas piscarão, ganhando vida. Essas obras fazem parte de uma série que projeta essas questões de realidade, percepção e identidade não apenas para o futuro imaginado do artista, mas também para o passado. Penny está fascinado com nossa compreensão moderna da fotografia, não apenas como um meio de capturar o “real”, mas como um meio primário para nos imaginarmos e nos definirmos.

维也纳的雕塑和因斯布鲁克的艺术家弗洛里安·哈菲勒（florian hafele）都具有高度扭曲的真实感。 哈夫勒的感性诉说着人类在社会中的表现以及由此产生的过分紧张或扭曲的感觉，以达到除“拯救面子”外还满足看似普遍的标准。 哈菲勒（Hafele）具有人物形象的作品永远不会通过消除人物形象来消除人物面部表情，从而消除面部表情，再加上人物四肢的位置增加形状，从而突出了人物的一维和绝望的真实感。 hafele创作了“ social panopticum”雕塑系列。 该系列的特色是三位人物，他们的几何形状从不露面的形状中生长出来。 艺术家用聚氯乙烯和油漆，塑料，木材或青铜材料制成变形或扭曲的人体。
TADAO CERN
Palloncini Neri
L’artista e fotografo lituano Tadao Cern ha creato un’installazione suggestiva, composta da più di 400 palloncini, disposti rigorosamente e geometricamente in molte linee. Intitolata ‘Black Balloons’, questa particolare composizione nasce dalla curiosità e dall’esperienza di Tadao Cern nel ‘collegare due palloncini’ e nel realizzare una nuova composizione uno per uno, che ha dato all’artista un processo creativo come un ‘gioco d’infanzia’ e poi si è trasformato in un esperienziale processo di creazione di un nuovo tipo di arte.

Loop of Wisdom
Architecture studio Powerhouse Company has created a reception building topped with a circular walking trail as part of a development in Chengdu, China. The structures beneath the walking trail will act as a sales pavilion and reception block for the new Unis Chip City development in Chengdu’s Tianfu New District, which is under construction in the southern part of the city. Powerhouse Company connected these two structures with a bright red rooftop walkway, named Loop of Wisdom, which is designed to make the reception block more useable than if it was a standalone building.

BELIEF SYSTEMS
Facial micro expressions last less than a second and are almost impossible to control. They are hard wired to the emotional activity in the brain which can be easily captured using specially developed technological devices. Free will is now in question as the science exposes decision-making as an emotional process rather than a rational one. This ability to read emotions technologically result in a society obsessed with their emotional reactions. Emotions, convictions and beliefs which usually remain hidden, now become a public matter. “Belief systems” is a video scenario about a society that responds to the challenges of modern neuroscience by embracing these technological possibilities to read, evaluate and alter peoples behaviours and emotions.
