Harmony of Opposites
Fog taking various forms, which, combined with animations, creates fleeting and unique visual effects. Its opposite are solids that symbolize a constant and unchanging form.
The Elements
The age-old concept of the elements is associated with wind, earth, fire and water. What if we consider the elements we are ourselves as humans?
Hot and Cold
A videoart about climate change sweeping the entire planet like a pandemic. In terms of meaning, it refers both to the changes that the planet is subject to and to the game that shapes the ability to read signals from the environment.
Veins of the City
The glow of the veins will both illuminate the area of the ruins at night and shed light on the history of the city. It will prove that the Teutonic Castle is still alive, and the story about it should not be forgotten.
Spirit of the City
The installation shows the characteristic buildings of Toruń’s old town with a pinch of salt. The elements of the installation are atmospheric old town tenement houses of various specific shapes.
Transpositions
The installation consists of 24 glass panes made using the fusing technique, which were hung in several sequences along the walls of the ruins of the Teutonic Castle.
Inside Energy
Dynamic animation combines the technique of 2D and 3D animation, playing with light showing a human as part of the cosmos.
Bee roles
The installation refers to the everyday life of bees and their role in human life. The artists want to emphasize in their project how much these insects do for the world and how we limit their freedom through our actions.
Exoplanets
The duo of well-known and popular promoters of astronomy from Toruń (Piotr Majewski and Jerzy Rafalski) will take viewers on a long journey aimed at exoplanets — distant worlds beyond the Solar System.
