PRESENCE


The Fake Factory

Italy

  Interactive

CONCEPT


“Digital technology liberates artistic expression from the constraints of the material world, enabling it to assume fluid and mutable forms. Immersive environments, wherein viewers and digital artworks coexist, provide a dynamic context in which the modes of expression and transformation can be actively experienced.”

The installation showcases one of the recurring themes in The Fake Factory’s artistic poetics: the physical presence of the audience within the artwork. You will become the main actors capable of generating an infinite series of gestural choreographies and chromatic compositions with their own body.

NYMPHS | VR REQUIEM


ShuShuVR & Niko Lang| VRium Creative Team

Poland/Germany

Virtual Reality

CONCEPT


A sensual VR requiem, an ode to those of the female persuasion, who have experienced true love. Here they become Nymphs in an amorous yet lethal underwater dream.

The performance is a poetic study for the VR stage examining the insanity and beauty of love.

We flow through two dimensions: the sacral reality, where motives are set up in an anatomical theatre, while imaginary creatures from legends take us into a scenic dream, “far out in the ocean, where the water is as blue as the prettiest cornflower, as clear as crystal….”

Artists: ShuShuVR & Niko Lang

In collaboration with: The Popovy Sisters & Libera

Samuele Barretta’s relationship with light is deeply intimate and personal. Drawing from club culture technologies, he creates immersive light and sound artworks that blend cutting-edge tools with everyday elements like home light bulbs. His installations often reflect the darker, more introspective aspects of his personality, but are equally capable of erupting into vibrant, blinding energy displays.

Electronic music serves as the universal language he communicates, merging sound and light into multi-sensory experiences that invite audiences to explore new ways of perceiving emotion and space.

The Tempest - The Fake Factory

THE TEMPEST


Stefano Fake & The Fake Factory

Italy

  Projection Mapping

CONCEPT


‘We are such stuff sas dreams are made on, and our little life is rounded with a sleep.’

(William Shakespeare)

The evocative power of Shakespeare’s work meets the expressive possibilities of immersive digital art in the installation THE TEMPEST, inspired by the homonymous play by William Shakespeare and specifically by the initial scene of the shipwreck, with a seamless movement of sea waves that transports the visitors to the wreck of our certainties and abandons them to an unknown island, a place of magic and transformation.

Today, Shakespeare’s text seems appropriate to describe digital art which stages optical illusions, ephemeral scenographies, visual and sound deceptions. Through a completely video-projected environment, the public is transported on a sensorial journey that blends moving images, music and sounds in an installation capable of enveloping and involving all the senses.

LIMEN - Moulab Collective

LIMEN


MOULAB COLLECTIVE

Italy

Audiovisual

CONCEPT


The Limen (threshold) is the synthesis between space and time in an aggregate in which one determines the other, without entailing an end, but rather two beginnings.

In comparison with the Limes, it includes and celebrates the responsibility underlying the choice, because the threshold is only such when it is crossed, therefore implying a relationship with the subjectivity that determines it.

MOULAB is an artistic group which finds its founding core in co-creation.

It expresses itself through digital languages, but its research is rooted in the material element that can be found in its works as a presence or as an unbridgeable absence.

His poetics constantly focuses on presence itself, in a two-way relationship with the natural environment that he claims as his own powerful matrix of meaning.
