GUERRILLA LIGHTING WORKSHOP WITH FINAL EVENT

Flash Art - LIQUID LIGHT & ARCHITECTURAL MAPPING with Overhead Projectors
The workshop, led by artists Laurenz Theinert & Andrej Štular (Forum Ljubljana/Strip Core), is dedicated to exploring the world of analogue light and projection techniques and exploring the creative possibilities offered by overhead projectors.

The focus will be on liquid light and analog architectural mapping, two experimental approaches that allow for direct and tactile experiences with light, matter, movement, and space. The final evening will feature the creation of the final installation of the works, in the form of Flash Art, open to the public.

Following the success of previous editions of the Art&Puppets project, CTA Gorizia is offering sixteen young people over the age of 18 the opportunity to participate in a free three-day workshop.

The workshop, held by Laurenz Theinert & Andrej Štular (Forum Ljubljana/Strip Core) at the UNG - Art Academy of University of Nova Gorica and at the Coronini Foundation in Gorizia, will culminate in the creation of a Flash Art installation, with a public screening on the evening of Saturday, April 11.

Drawing on the liquid light technique that emerged in the 1960s, participants will work with glass plates, colored liquids, oils, and pigments. By mixing, layering, and moving, they will create live, moving light images with organic forms, fluid structures, and surprising color spaces.

After analyzing the existing architecture, the projections will be developed by connecting to the space through the use of transparencies, masks, stencils, drawings, and objects. Shapes, edges, and surfaces will be specifically illuminated and transformed into living, luminous images through superimposition, movement, and manual animation, effectively reinterpreting the architectural space.
