The video-installation aspires to challenge the perception of familiar spaces. By playing with the fundamentals of video and projection such as perspective, scale, materials, pacing and framing, we dematerialize space and as a result the aspects of everyday life become abstract and conceptual. By using blurred images, kaleidoscopic effects, extreme zoom-ins, image rotations and reflections, we evoke the feeling of dreaming or drifting in memory. Ritualistic actions and sounds as well as lyricism are employed to produce a spiritual environment. In addition we use time-lapse, asynchronous projections of the same action, velocity and time loops, to bend time. The several elements of the installation further create the sense of boxes within boxes, realities within realities and try to create bridges between them. The convention of space-time is thus deconstructed and remains fluid, open for the visitor to give meaning to.
Through the phenomenological experience produced by the video installation, the simultaneous presence of three different worlds/ realities is enhanced: the material world of the installation, the world as captured in video and the virtual world that resides in our consciousness. Consequently the video installation is a fleeting experience, a celebration of the moment and an open-ended event. This is further enhanced by the strong presence of humans serving and performing the spatial elements and the equipment plays a key role in creating a sense of congenial looseness.

Through the peaks and ambient tones, the sound installation takes the audience for the spiRITUAL journey. The sequences of the various soundscapes build up respectively a sense of the presence, then growing tension, and finally catharsis. All the elements of the spatial configuration, such as projections, scattered chairs, blind folds, glasses, metal pieces and paper tapes, consist into one, analog, spatial instrument. The composition is enhanced with the analog part; during which the developed sound score played in digital 7.1 surround system quality is juxtaposed with a pre-recorded sounds of tape and real-time tearing of the floor lines.

The element of the blind folds amplifies the perception of the narration. While all audience members have the eyes covered, all senses are sharpened. Participators can instinctively feel the presence and movement of the performers, while the sense of hearing seems to be deceptive. At the end, the spectators ‘awake’ in empty room having a sense of teleportation or temporary disorientation after the undergone journey.
‘Peel’ is a choreographed performance summing up the 3-week long block of seminars, workshops and lectures on the movement. Dancers and choreographers form the New Movement Collective, interdisciplinary dance group, introduced the basics of the filed. The collectvie investigation has been focused on the idea of ‘creating the bonds with the audience’ and ‘playing with the roles and expectations’.
04 PEEL CHOREOGRAPHY PERFORMANCE 18/12/2015
Many elements found its continuation, for example the line projections. Some others, such us soud score, has been developed further. The performance experimentation with the media has been enhanced with the video work titled ‘Peel’ displayed in 3D quality.

05 RES EXTENSA PERFORMANCE / INSTALLATION 08-09/03/2016 IV INTERNATIONAL BIENNIAL OF INTERIOR DESIGN MALOPOLSKA GARDEN OF ARTS KRAKOW

RES EXTENSA Malopolska Garden of Arts’ entrance hall / atrium is a transitional space, channeling and filtering the outside and the inside worlds; literally a threshold. The creative team from the Architectural Association Interprofessional Studio (AAIS) incorporates a synthesis of several mediums to render and constitute the atrium’s spatial configuration. During the course of the event the performers activate and animate the space, weaving in four-dimensions, structure, choreography, live soundscape and projection. By introducing a concept of Yi-jong gong-gan, AAIS interprets this year’s Biennale theme, Energy - Self/ie - Space.

XYZ/s is a site-specific project engaging different levels and spaces at the Watermans Art Centre in London. Questioning our perception of reality, the performance examines the relationships between virtual and physical worlds. Through the use of multiple mediums, interactive and participatory elements as well as analogue and digital media, we reverse the roles, shift the spaces, and play with the time (life-feed vs. pre-recorded picture) and audience expectations through the guided narration.
XYZ/s attempts to virtualise the real and realise the virtual, forming an intersecting space between reality and unreality. Inspired by the simulation argument we assumed 3 types of actions: permanent (exhibition) repeatable/circular (repetitive performance/ installation) and one time only – finale (interactive performance). Along with the open studio, dance rehearsals, exhibition and student panel talk, all actions consist into XYZ/s interdisciplinary event at Watermans Art Centre.

SUPERPOSITION is a multidisciplinary performance & interprofessional exchange platform which draws inspiration from the city of Vienna, tangible and intangible spaces and theories regarding our perception of reality. It weaves them into the fabric of spacetime inviting visitors to interact with it. Developed videomapping projections and design elements combined into immersive performative costume have been mutually interlinked and synchronised within the sound and choreography resulting in overwhelming spatial experience.
The event’s programme offers, inter alia, MOVEMENT RESEARCH LAB experimental choreography workshop; AAIS EXHIBITION presentiation of the previous events, theoretical and practical research, experimentations, side projects and backstage experiences; SOIRÉE WITH AAIS & FRIENDS two evenings with drinks, snacks, DJ & VJ sets, along with the menu-designed culinary experience and open panel discussion

XYZ/s extended is a multimedia, interactive performance/installation which challenges the relationships among performers, visitors, objects, space and our senses. It draws inspiration from some of the most prominent theories of physics and philosophy, creating an interplay of the four dimensions (point, line, plane and time). The visitors are encouraged to explore three different spaces and find themselves in various roles and situations. Each space has its own immersive environment for people to experience and interact with.

The multifunctional system performing as a static structure, performance element, costume design & choreography component, video, video mapping and sound material, and finally as an exhibition system. Elaborated design successfully convinces a symbolic meaning originating from the assumed philosophy and the primal determinants of the space, which are point and line.

The structure efficiently combines the low costs of CNC production, lightness and adaptability to many functions, capability of international transportation, as well as in the possibility of combining with other materials such as cardboard tubes, elastic ribbons and cork bards, which testifies on its universality.

The rules has been precisely defined so the participants have been giving clear instructions. The aim was to create multiple spatial arrangements via synchronised and controlled manner, which led to empirical examination of shaping the space.

FOOD ART / EXPERIMENTATIONS / DEGUSTATION / GRAPHIC DESIGN
Selected set of apetizers draws the inspiration form the previous projects. Developed philosophy, metaphorical meanings and symbols has been translated into flavor's dimension. Each snack reveals another aspect of 'unreality'; both in the form and taste. A sensation has been enhanced by the element of the game. Designed menu and graphic motives enables juxtaposing the graphics to create the own composition of the flavor.
