Santiago Tavera – Stereo Linear Balance – BIAN Montréal
May 1- June 4
Maison de la culture Marie-Uguay
6052, boul. Monk, Montreal, Quebec H4E 3H6
Stereo Linear Balance is an immersive video installation that presents a stereoscopic illusion, a process through which an image is reproduced in relief. Video and digital elements are projected on plexiglas screens. The clever way it is presented creates different perceptions of an image, forming an illusion, a mirage captured by the brain. The creation awakens the imagination and stimulates the visitor’s senses. This exhibition will be part of the International Digital Arts Biennal 2016 of Montreal.
Santiago Tavera’s thesis project, Translational Spaces, consists of an artist book project, interactive web-project & digital installation, exploring the potential of digital media to simulate the state of a migrant body while being contained in a physical place.
Santiago’s graduating thesis exhibition continues at Agence Topo until April 30th, 2016, where the artist is also doing three reading sessions.
