In this edition of Open Studios the visitor will be able to experience a broad range of creative proposals from our resident artists; James Perleys’ will perform excerpts of his ‘virtual operetta’ that further develop his compositional narrative of subconscious creativity. EUNU ’s will show her approach and investigation of the ‘architectural sculpture’. Ainhoa Salas will uncover the sensationalism and seduction strategies of the media to draw the visitor towards a sensory chaos. Angela Louise Powell & Jessie Burrows focus on the contemporary issues of privacy in the digital age and how they influence our personal and social desires. Zeeon Zheon’ s sculptures will reflect on the boundaries between the perceptible and imperceptible spheres. Greg Kappes works will propose a new collaborative paradigm with technology which emphasizes relation, interaction, and connection. Bernardita Bennett will feature her photographs as a means of documenting the ephemeral nature of buildings and the travel that is left behind after they are demolished. Janna Marie Cariddi opens windows commemorating her childhood utopias by means of eye catching and yet playful images. Maxime Thoreau ’s sculptures explore form and function by producing forms that appear technically sound yet, in reality he creates fakes surrounded by a notion of fiction. Bruna Mayer explores the invisible ecosystem within the body – its natural and untamed existence – through the cultivation of microorganisms that within enclosed containers can spread and proliferate freely, forming their own visible and unique patterns.
