EX-CARCEL / Video Art Installation

One of two video art installations I created for the New Valparaíso Cultural Center in Chile on occasion of the International Dance Day.

 

Both about in the works of prestigious Contemporary Dance Abundanza, we shoot at the same location where we planned to project them. In fact, screen was located at the same spots the videos were recorded, causing a sort of disturbing feel to the viewer.

Creator's work its highly conceptual, she gave me the inputs to achieve the maximum coherence between her concept and final image.

I applied some rotoscope, mixed it with still pictures. The result is this kind of surreal Escher-esque images.

An extraordinary group of 20 artists, dancers, painters and intellectuals were summoned to perform during three hours, inspired by the work she had published in a blog (http://narcisoelextasiado.blogspot.com/).

 

There, they found concepts, inspiration, music, pictures and videos, to use as guidelines for recycle, remix and transform it for the performance.

The audience was involved as part of the performance, they were invited to share all the pictures and videos they take to the social networks making the event a fully connected artistic experience.
