Artists Te-Mao Lee (’73) and Luca Favaro (’93) have been participating in the ARE artist-in-residence program at ARE since early June 2024. During their residency, Te-Mao and Luca engaged with their surroundings, each responding to their environment in Enschede from their own discipline and experiences. Moving Spaces presents a surprising and perceptive take on space.
Te-Mao Lee – Bursting
Balloons bring a festive party atmosphere; however, in this exhibition the audience may feel a bit anxious as they pass by the balloons. The balloons gradually expand and might burst at any moment. Through the balloons, Te-Mao explores two observations during his residency: one regarding the stable civil society where each person possesses a relatively independent sense of identity and internalized self-discipline. The other concerns the nearby German border, examining the visibility and invisibility of physical space and online maps using Google Street View.
Te-Mao Lee is an artist from Taiwan. His work frequently employs intuitive experiences as a method of expression. During his residency in Enschede, he explores the phenomena on both sides of national borders through street view imagery. On the other hand, he is also reflecting on some phenomena within civil society
Luca Favaro – Leave a Trace (Ecosystem_03)
Leave a Trace speaks of space and memory. This interactive installation creates, using speakers and microphones, an invisible area that incorporates its surroundings and uses them in an ongoing musical composition. Through recordings, playbacks and variations, everyone and everything that passes through the soundscape will have an influence on its outcome. The software behind the artwork works with three different types of memory (short, medium, and long term) to remember and pass on what happens inside the installation’s space, creating an environment that fosters exchange and exploration.
Luca Favaro (Capiuz) is a sound artist and composer from Italy, whose work investigates the use of sound as an architectural and spatial element, finding his roots in sound design, club music, and field recording. His art can take various shapes, from sound installation to DJ set and live improvisation.
After the opening the exhibition will be available for viewing by appointment until August 25. To schedule your visit send an email to luca.favaro93@gmail.com with your preferred date and time.
