Artwork, in the form of photographs, unfolds through the creative flow and passion of two artists that strive to awaken the same feelings within the spectator.
The artists firmly believe that people who immerse themselves in what they love, whether it’s dance or any other passion, are tapping into a deep space within themselves – that sometimes might be hard to define fully – but every individual inhabits in a unique way.
The aim of the exhibition is to capture a moment of flow, which is driven by feelings and the artists’ mutual concepts. These moments are presented to the spectator in the form of visual scenarios, that can not fully be defined, but have a mutual intersection which is this place within us relating to one’s passion.
The artists focus on the body and movement, while staying away from the idea of the body itself. Through the exhibition they rather place the emphasis on the connection that is generated through the body with the heart.
This exhibition is a collaboration between the dance artist, Íris Ásmundar, and the photographer and graphic designer Nicolas Ipiña.
Íris graduated from Rambert School in London and holds a master’s degree in performance and professional practices from University of Salford, and Nicolas holds a BA in graphic design from the University of Buenos Aires.
