POETRY IN THE DARKNESS
LIVE AV by Tea Guarascio aka KOMMEN
Duration: 45′
TECHNIQUE:
The video uses images recorded by the artist, the work procedure appropriates different languages, intertwining video art and video technique in real time [Vj’ing].
Multi screens, traces of shapes build cartoons, digital landscapes are confused with realistic images.
The choice of black and white is related to the theme: darkness, the color represents the light at the end of the road.
The fast and slow movement is linked to possible sound rhythms creating visual distortions, as well as the repetition of images in a loop interpreting the music in the Live Audiovisual concept.
MUSIC:
The music is created live, through different devices, Launchpad, Circuit Bending, Loops and voices, created by the artist and then released following the images.
SYNOPSIS:
The work is an oneiric tale about identity and memory, nature as mirror image of our inner world and emotional experiences.
Light and darkness are intertwined in a dance once in a slow and hypnotic, frantic and full of visions, bichromatic and luxuriant of colours.
Water, sky, clouds translate the most profound impulses of the spirit, the same that guide us in our search for order within chaos to truth and beauty.
Bodies and souls trapped in a water dimension out of time and conventional space, suspended in the deep of the unconscious.
