NEW!Siren Odyssey - A voyage through the 11 frequencies of: 728, 741, 285, 417, 396, 174, 639, 528, 825, 963 and 432, making up the alphabet of our E@motion evolution. Could they be the alphabet of our emotional evolution? The in-between links or the errors – the DNA junk? Are our emotions evolutional junk, the potential of our evolution? Syren Oddissey is an audio visualization of my Periodic Table of Shadowed Emotions, the result of Eva's project Gr@y Matter – Language of Shadows. Frequencies of pitch have been associated with different moods, and the earth and the human body have different resonant frequencies associated with them. For the individual selected frequencies in Siren Odyssey, Eva tried to find textures and grooves that complemented the particular frequencies that were presented to her. The sounds you hear are all tuned to be consonant with the base frequency and therefore should amplify the feeling associated with that particular frequency. Vinyl record in sleeve. Text: Dr.Thomas Miessgang Vocals, lyrics, sound, composition and concept: Eva Petrič Sound production and synthesizer: Mydeck 2000 NYC Scene: installation of recycled lace assemblages by Eva Petrič Video projections: Eva Petrič Performance: Eva Petrič An A4 fine art print of all the shadow images is added, representing the 11 frequencies. -
NEW!Luka Hernet (1998) is a younger-generation photographer from Maribor. Since 2018, he has worked across documentary, portrait, reportage, and concert photography. The series Somewhere, Somehow / Nekje, nekako brings together photographs taken in various locations during the most recent period of his artistic practice. Seemingly unrelated scenes, abandoned objects, traces of human presence, unusual interventions in the landscape, and subtle departures from the order of everyday life, come together in an open-ended visual narrative about transience, chance, and the fragility of the environment. Hernet is particularly interested in moments when the ordinary world briefly becomes unfamiliar, ambiguous, or almost surreal. The series SOMEWHERE, SOMEHOW / NEKJE, NEKAKO consists of photographs taken by Luka Hernet in various locations and at different stages of his career. Seemingly unrelated scenes—abandoned objects, traces of human presence, unusual interventions in the landscape, and subtle deviations from the everyday order—come together to form an open-ended visual narrative about transience, chance, and the fragility of the environment. Hernet is particularly interested in moments when the ordinary world briefly becomes alien, ambiguous, or almost surreal. The photographs are characterized by a blend of a documentary perspective and a distinct aesthetic sensibility. The artist shifts between color-saturated images, tranquil landscape scenes, and high-contrast black-and-white shots, yet maintains a consistent focus on the tension between gentleness and unease, order and chaos, presence and disappearance. Somewhere, Somehow is not so much a record of a specific space as it is a personal map of fleeting encounters with a world that is constantly changing and eludes definitive interpretation. The print run is 10 copies, the photograph measures 40 x 50 cm and is digitally printed on 230g matte paper. -
