OTZ OUTLET | Kwerk solo exhibition | July 14th - Aug 15th, 2022
The tittle Micro/Macro responds to the idea of repeated reproduction, interference and use of modular forces.
The exhibition includes multidisciplinary art forms moving between audio forms and minimalist lines.
The artist Kwerk, exhibition continues his exploration of how sound influences our hyper visual perception situating his audience in an semi permanent immersive state.
The artists aims to construct new audio and visual narratives using analogue and digital outputs. In a time where digital downloads is the norm. Kwerk, re-uses old technology and subverts the context, adding/distorting the audio with his signature paintings on vinyl.
The exhibition will showcase his vinyl series, which use centrifugal forces to paint unknown/automatic paintings.
“Altered as a result of the process”, is the artist “motif” as he conceptually formalises time and space with sculptural paintings that mix repurposed items with analogue/new technology to create complex forms.
Different media’s lays the foundation to what Kwerk calls undefined forces or a playful interaction between the random and the controlled.
The exhibition will include an orchestrated vibrant soundscape performed live while the artist creates a conceptual visual language simultaneously on different surfaces. Different media’s lays the foundation to what Kwerk's calls undefined forces or a playful interaction between the random and the controlled. His thematic cluster approach to painting mirrors his field recordings, paving the way for unexpected encounters and tonal narratives that blend and drone almost poetically and create vibrant audio colours.
Formal aspects to the artists work are his time line paintings which create multi layered dimensions of time and space over found paintings.
The show raises urgent questions about situation with the now, beyond and future realities.
