Canadian artist Lenka Novakova and US artist Georgie Friedman simulate the waves and currents of water through digital means, exploring the flow of time and providing unique spaces for contemplation.
The title Waves & Currents references not only the ocean waves and river currents visually represented in the video installations, but also the media in which the artists are working: sound waves and electrical current.
This exhibition is presented in conjunction with STUDIO 300, Digital Art and Music Festival, and features two video installations:
by Georgie Friedman
"River"
by Lenka Novakova.
