EKPYROSIS | DIGITAL VIDEO WALL #4



Ekpyrosís (2021) by Léa Porré is the fourth video screening inside Rabbit Hole, the fourth edition of DIGITAL VIDEO WALL, an annual project structured in thematic chapters, which promotes the dissemination and experimentation of digital art.

 

Rabbit Hole is the theme chosen by Gemma Fantacci to present a series of works whose focus can be identified in the metaphor introduce by Lewis Caroll of the White Rabbit. Rabbit Hole delves into the deep web to trace trajectories and movements of a visual milieu that ranges from the destructive cycle fomented by the obession for continuous aesthetic self-perfection to the representation of internet phenomena capable of altering our perception of reality.

 

Ekpyrosís is a video artwork in which a virtual world, created through game engines (digital tools to generate video games), presents mythological motifs and historical hints in order to establish a new cyclical version of the concept of history. Léa Porré builds a personal interpretation of the Palace of Versailles and the era of the Sun King by mixing palace ruins with catastrophic natural landscapes: passing through amidst rubble and mythological evocations, the gaze rediscovers a new definition of space and time.

 

With DIGITAL VIDEO WALL Metronom offers a place dedicated to the exhibition and presentation of digital art languages. The peculiar position of the video wall, which allows 24-hour use from the street front, transforms the DVW into an urban intervention, a way to redesign and change the image of the street.

 

The press kit is avaible here
