SENSITIVE ENVIRONMENT

When looking through the window, light and colour are reflected in the landscape, interpreting it as a stratification of knowledge and culture.

Developed for a commercial project, “Panographie” is an immersive installation designed to promote Keller Minimal Windows with a visual reading of the product’s concept.

 

The artwork serves as a seminal reflection on the very act of seeing, delving into the realms of composition, architecture, and the interplay between indoor and outdoor spaces. Keller’s windows, characterised by their minimalist, sliding, and frameless design, effectively blur the boundaries between interior and exterior, transforming into both the subject of transition and the embodiment of the creative act itself.

Observing through the window opens our perceptual experience to a panoptic kingdom, offering a broader perspective.  Conversely, looking through a screen  monitor confines the view, connecting us to the world in a more intimate, receptive way. Whether it’s a window framing the world or a world we create through a window, an opening in the surface eventually becomes the ultimate artistic tool.

With digital representations of space, drawing is often reduced to mere Cartesian data. These rigid yet potentially deceiving coordinates make reality indiscernible from fiction, whereas the act of physical drawing stands as a genuine simulation, openly acknowledging its artificial essence. We become thus aware spectators, free to navigate throughout the space and beyond its fictitious renderings.

In the glow of transparency, a dialogue unfolds between the drawing and the drawn space, intertwining with the continuous monitor vibration, the perpetual sensorial flow, the screen void, and surface depths. Beyond every hybrid simulation, the drawing process seamlessly transcends medium and technique, engaging the space, the observer, and the author with equal intensity.

[…] from ordinary observation to a creative immersive shift.

“Panographie” is a multimedia environment that envelops the user within its narrative through sensorial participation. Images, animation, and ambient audio converge, transforming information into a captivating experience. Each composition features multiple levels and dynamic elements, showcasing a surreal landscape. Eager to uncover hidden narratives within the layered timeline, audiences are prone to construct their own worlds. The ever-changing outcomes reveal the magic of time’s passage to a broader audience.
