States of Matter by Susan Narduli

States of Matter by Susan Narduli of the award-winning Los Angeles-based architecture and design practice Narduli Studio, reimagines the physical world as a virtual experience that makes visible the complex phenomena of matter and invites viewers to find their place within the worlds we inhabit. Employing custom algorithms to produce individual “behaviors” based on observable and unobservable states of matter, States of Matter’s generative animations create a poetic expression of the foundational principles of the physical world, reconceptualized as a virtual experience.

Narduli works at the intersection of art, architecture and technology and imagines a future based on the synergistic evolution of physical and virtual environments. She has completed commissions in public art, public spaces, architecture, virtual environments, interactive experiences, museum installations, light and sound environments and landscapes.

MAREMAGNVM by Edison Peñafiel

South Florida artist Edison Peñafiel addresses the migrant experience with a large-scale immersive installation containing a vast and undulating seascape that surrounds viewers on all sides. It is populated by 14 boats and 81 larger-than-life characters who are navigate a never-ending journey in which they are caught in a perpetual loop of their video universe, arriving back where they began, continually heading against the waves.

 Peñafiel’s work focuses on video and immersive, site-specific, multimedia installations that create surreal echoes of our world. Informed by his own life, he centers the migrant as a subject. His practice channels migrant narratives in order to transmit to the viewer the reality behind the experience of marginalization.
