DIGITAL VIDEO WALL
EDEN | EVA PAPAMARGARITI
February - March 2021
In the context of DIGITAL VIDEO WALL | EDEN, Metronom presents Factitious Imprints (2016), a video work by artist Eva Papamargariti.
Factitious Imprints focuses on the idea of a constructed nature and how it can be documented and defined through a palimpsest of imprints that human and natural processes fabricate on surfaces and terrains simultaneously. What kind of fragments these actions leave as relics of a possible post human or post natural landscape?
DIGITAL VIDEO WALL is the annual project structured into thematic chapters, inaugurated by Metronom to promote the diffusion and experimentation of digital art. DIGITAL VIDEO WALL creates a space devoted to the display and presentation of digital art languages, in order to explore their expressive possibilities and engage with the multifaceted context of new technologies.
The first chapter of the project will investigate the concept of EDEN, a contemporary earthly paradise intended as a luxuriant primordial landscape or a place for the fulfilment of desires. The screened works will decline the idea of EDEN through the expressive methods of digital art.
As part of the program of each intervention, an event will be organized in the form of a lecture, series of projections, thematic focuses that will deepen the authors' experimentation on Generazione Critica's website.
