URUSHI-E
“Traditionnellement, les images du Genji sont appliquées sur la soie des kimonos, selon une antique technique japonaise de laque mêlée de poudre d’or ou d’argent appelée urushi-e. Ici, cette technique d’urushi-e, littéralement «image laquée», est appliquée sur mes propres autoportraits photographiques qui sont des impressions pigmentaires sur toile. Le dessin à la poudre d’or imite la broderie au fil d’or – il est tellement fin que la reproduction photographique de l’œuvre rend difficilement compte du raffinement de cette technique subtile.” Kimiko Yoshida

Sarcophagus
Al interior del espacio se introdujo un recinto de meditación, permitiendo a los participantes encontrar confort en un lugar poco convencional de reposo. El interior ha sido llenado imágenes y sonido que permiten un estado de meditación para tener una perspectiva de uno mismo […]”Sarcophagus” fue presentado por primera vez en el borde de la playa de Blairgowrie, en Victoria, y la instalación fue ocupada por el artista de performance Steiner lilian, quién fue filmado en el interior del ataúd entrando en un estado meditativo.

Bound
In meiner Arbeit geht es um unsere Beziehung zum Rest der Natur, die durch Vorstellungen von Veränderung, Zeitablauf und Vergänglichkeit von allem um uns herum erforscht wird. Für mich steht die Schaffung scheinbar fester Strukturen oder Formen aus Tausenden von einzeln aufgehängten Elementen in direktem Zusammenhang mit meiner Erfahrung mit diesen Kräften. Es gibt ein Gefühl der Zerbrechlichkeit und einen Mangel an Solidität, der alle Skulpturen durchdringt.

The ineffable Gardener
“Loris nurtures a strong attraction to the composition made by fusing life and art. In his creations, he often includes segments from different scientific fields, for example chemistry and cutting edge technology. Following this philosophical line, one of the main ingredients and vital conceptions in his work is the notion of the organic element. This notion serves to a double purpose, with intention to explore a certain object and his relevance in the material world, but also to emphasize the minimalist approach in art making.”Hugo Hess

Veillance – Canada
Inspired by Steve Mann’s research, Veillance explores mutual surveillance between citizens and institutions. While observing digitized portraits of others, visitors also have their image captured and added to the archive. Yet through subtle gestures and changes in appearance, one can evade the scan, effectively hijacking the scanography process.
BIO
Louis-Philippe Rondeau designs playful, unconventional devices that explore self-representation and performance. His research-creation practice prioritizes user-friendly design, concealing complex code behind intuitive physical interfaces.

Swimming in a glowing, underwater sea of jellyfish would be a really beautiful experience. But, with limited access to the deep sea, this interactive installation by artist Takahiro Matsuo could be considered a backup to that kind of actual encounter. The dark blue room, a reminder of the oceanic abyss, is a seamlessly flowing design in which viewers can appreciate the beauty of these fascinating creatures without having to actually run the risk of a jellyfish sting.

After Deep Blue
ADB is a modular robot designed for tactile interactions with people. It is composed of a chain of prism-shaped robotic modules. Through the modules’ coordinated behavior, the robot writhes, wriggles and twists in response to the presence of skin and force. The robot is animated only when actively engaged by a person, otherwise it is at rest. Stroking, rubbing or grasping ADB results in it pushing back, retreating or occasionally grasping onto a body part, depending on the combination of stimulus. Participants may experience the object at their leisure. They can play with the device, exploring how it feels, and how it responds to their touch.
