Zilvinas Kempinas: TUBE
Youtube
The Renaissance building Scuola Grande della Misericordia houses the Lithuanian Pavilion at the 53rd International Art Exhibition La Biennale di Venezia in Venice, Italy. In this building, the artist Žilvinas Kempinas presents his large-scale installation, TUBE which can be described as a translucent tunnel of parallel lines, created with magnetic tape. TUBE resonates with the environment of the floating city and creates a space where vision and movement are linked by means of the body. It addresses the physical and optical experiences of the viewer, and the passage of time, while creating the feeling of being inside and outside simultaneously.
