About project:
Plesni Teater Ljubljana continues its long-standing collaboration with the Svetlobna gverila festival and its artists. In this year’s edition of the festival, every Wednesday at dusk (9:30 PM), Laura Adel’s projection will be complemented by a dance performance in which dancer Alja Lacković will engage in a movement-based dialogue with the projection in front of the gallery window.
The interactive projection in the gallery window takes the shape of a classical portal, with its central part transformed into a projection surface. The projected video work is conceived as a flowing mass of shapes and textures, which—accompanied by a distorted soundscape—transform into abstract visual patterns through their interactive relationship with the viewer. Within the visual field, only time remains continuous, while the bodily forms continually return and emerge before the viewer in a constant effort to transcend themselves.The artist explores how the visualization of the viewer’s movement can, in turn, influence their spatial navigation.
O projektu:
Plesni Teater Ljubljana nadaljuje zdaj že večletno sodelovanje s festivalom Svetlobna gverila in njihovimi umetniki.
V letošnji ediciji festivala bo vsako sredo ob mraku (21.30) projekcijo Laure Adel nadgradil tudi plesni performans, kjer bo plesalka Alja Lacković pred oknom galerije vzpostavljala gibalni dialog s projekcijo.
Interaktivna projekcija v oknu galerije sledi obliki klasičnega portala, katerega osrednji del se spreminja v projekcijsko površino. Projicirano video delo je zasnovano kot prelivajoča se gmota oblik in tekstur, ki se ob spremljavi distorzirane zvočne kulise v interaktivnem odnosu z gledalcem spreminjajo v abstrahirane vizualne sheme. V vizualnem polju ostaja neprekinjen le čas, medtem ko se forme teles vedno znova vračajo in se pred gledalcem porajajo v nenehnem prizadevanju, da bi presegle same sebe. Umetnica z delom raziskuje, kako lahko vizualizacija gledalčevega gibanja povratno vpliva na njegovo premikanje v prostoru.
