Lepo vabljeni! Scroll down for English! Ljudmilin digitalni obrok: Varvara Guljajeva Četrtek, 28. avgust ob 20.30 Lokacija: Ljudmila, Rimska 8, Ljubljana Inline images 1 Varvara Guljajeva (Estonija) in Mar Carnet Sola (Španija) delujeta kot umetniški tandem od leta 2009. Integralni del njunega ustvarjanja se kontekstualno umešča v polje med umetnostjo in tehnologijo ter se poslužuje raziskovanja novih umetniških izrazov in inovacije. Natančneje ju zanima uporaba tehnike pletenja, ki jo aplicirata na področje digitalne fabrikacije. Sta avtorja odprtokodne naprave za pletenje Knitic, s katero želita izdelovanje tekstila približati sami kulturi izdelovanja (t.i. Makers' culture). Svoje kinetične in interaktivne instalacije sta predstavila na številnih mednarodnih razstavah in festivalih, v preteklih treh letih pa se neprestano udejstvujeta tudi na umetniških rezidencah. Varvara Guljajeva je magistrirala iz digitalnih medijev na ISNM na Univerzi v Lübecku v Nemčiji in opravlja doktorski študij na estonski Akademiji za likovno umetnost v Talinu. Na Digitalnem obroku bo umetnica predstavila delovanje odprtokodne naprave za pletenje Knitic, govorila o svojih trenutno razstavljenih delih v Umetnostni galeriji Maribor - UGM ter delila izkušnje glede produkcije nekaterih svojih zadnjih umetniških del (kot je Wishing Wall). * * * Koprodukcija: Ljudmila, Zavod projekt Atol in UGM - Umetnostna galerija Maribor http://wiki.ljudmila.org/Varvara_Guljajeva http://www.projekt-atol.si/ http://www.ugm.si/razstave-program/razstava/n/spampoetry-spampoezija-2530/ * * * Dear subscriber, you are cordially invited to join us for the fourth Digital Dish in the season, hosted by Estonian visual artist Varvara Guljajeva.
