Atsara: [M]ondes // 

---------------------------------------------------------------

kinetic light installation // Atrij ZRC, Novi Square // 16. 5. – 18. 6.

OPENING: Monday, 16th May, at 21.30

The Atsara duo often deals with the exploration of relations between light, space and time, where a special emphasis is put on the exposition of poetic moments that come to life at their constant transformation, as well as on the excitation of the spectator's imagination. Their kinetic light installation is based on a state of continued transitions of tiny light particles that arise from the dark like fireflies and fly over the space before disappearing again. This meditative work, supported by a special soundtrack, thus uses reflections of light to enact mysterious organic life caught in constant motion. The project offers the spectator entry into a weightless world while toying with his or her perception and comprehension of space.

 

ATSARA is the artistic name of a tandem consisting of two French artists: Roland Devocelle (1969, Valence) and Audrey Rocher (1977, Agen). These two self-taught artists work together since 2000, dealing mostly with multimedia installations and audiovisual art and often employing the media of photography and video. Since 2008, they've focused intensively on video images combined with the integrated use of movable objects and sound interventions. They've exhibited their works in many different venues and festivals around the world.
