Artists Informtaion

Video

Tobias Zehntner http://tobiaszehntner.com,

BA Fine Art Goldsmiths College 2011.

Zehntner work spaces between video and installation using the relationship between art and science as a point of departure for the exploration of human and mechanical movement in time and space.

His work is distinguished by a minimal aesthetic and modernist aesthetics and compositions and which helps him to capture daily movements with a choreographic attitude.

Andrea Zucchini, BA Fine Art Goldsmiths

Andrea Zucchini's practice is about transformation and alchemy.

The elements he uses in the composition of his works explore the paradoxical relationship between creation and time, investigating the metaphysical and spiritual reality of our existence.

Withdrawing from science and psychology, Andrea tries to create the modern symbols that arise in depths of everyone’s inner process and path, expressing them through a variety of media and materials.

She works predominatly with video, performance, photography and text.

2.09 / 30.09 2011
EB&Flow Gallery,
77 Leonard Street, London EC2A

Cristian Zuzunaga’s first solo exhibition in London at EB&Flow is my last curatorial project. Zuzunaga’s practice is broad in scope and heembraces the role of an artist, photographer, printmaker and designer. Renowned as atextile and graphic designer, Zuzunaga is recognised for his brightly multi-coloured and distinctive pixelated textile prints.Alongside his success in the design world, Zuzunaga has been a practising artist throughouthis career.
His work includes photography, letterpress, video art and sculpture, comfortablybridging the line between art and design. The exhibition at EB&Flow will guide the viewer through the artist’s investigation of the city as a metaphor.  He examines architecture and the way global cities such as Barcelona, London, New York and Shanghai are constructed, inspiring and giving form to his versatile visual vocabulary.
Inspired by philosophy, architecture, anthropology and the psychology of C.G. Jung, Zuzunaga’s work explores notions of the self and identity, how these are defined and how they relate to the world. Combining analogue and digital technologies, Zuzunaga investigates the microscopic patterns created by the symbiotic relationships between humans and their environment. Under his design label Zuzunaga, focusing on interior design using printed textiles, the artist has collaborated with well-established companies such as Tate, Kvadrat, Wallpaper, Moroso, Belmacz, Ligne Roset and Nanimarquina.

Duncan Malashock, Catchments

bubblebyte.org is pleased to present Catchments, a solo exhibition by visual artist Duncan Malashock.

Duncan Malashock uses the Internet as a point of departure for his analysis about reality.
Through visual experimentation his work talks about how we relate with the web intended as a world of exchange where concept and ideas take form and flow. His concepts, mostly expressed through the conceptual titles of his works, develop in different ways from writing to music production to web-based images of any genre.

For the show Catchments, Duncan decided to reflect about the creational process and the various stages intended as unpredicted visual outputs. The intention is to highlight and represent what is left normally hidden, the work in progress behind the scenes and consider it as a mutated work itself.
