Through pictorial, sculptural, theatrical and cinematographic means, the main and only character symbolically \u201crecreates\u201d day by day the act of creation. The empty space is populated through the painting of flora and fauna followed by man\u2019s use of it, which ends in destruction. The grand and wonderful acts of the biblical creation story \u2013 as large as the universe itself \u2013 are translated here to an intimate scale, to images both near and familiar: The world is the familial space, the celestial globes are lamps, the flora are represented by house plants, the fauna by a cat and a bird; it is the creation of the world and its destruction in a nutshell. Platnic made use of the biblical creation narrative due to its fundamental status in, at least, the Western civilization. Platnic extricated from it the characteristic Western terminology that still shapes our understanding of the world and the constructs of our society, and opposes to it images from the natural world. The individual is facing the world or authority, and is not aware of his power and his responsibility. He is a prisoner of a language and a culture that conceptualize a priori his ways of observing and understanding his surrounding, that rigidify certain possibilities and exclude others. He is condemned to a fragmentary, culture-dependent understanding.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-e44ab23\" data-id=\"e44ab23\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-00caff0 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"00caff0\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-92bf0e6\" data-id=\"92bf0e6\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-48b5cca elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"48b5cca\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img width=\"640\" height=\"712\" src=\"https:\/\/www.niio.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/michel-platnic-squareb.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-cf9e188\" data-id=\"cf9e188\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2f98637 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"2f98637\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bbc53fe text-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-tp-heading-title\" data-id=\"bbc53fe\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"tp-heading-title.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"heading heading_style heading_style69f69a3a00589 style-1 \" ><div class=\"sub-style\" ><div class=\"head-title \" > <h2  class=\"heading-title   \"   data-hover=\"Michel Platnic\">Michel Platnic<span class=\"title-s \">  <\/span><\/h2><\/div><div class=\"sub-heading\"><h3 class=\"heading-sub-title  \"> Artist <\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ca7b5b5 niio-text-about elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ca7b5b5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Michel Platnic (1970), born in France, moved to Israel at 28 where he found his artistic voice. Realizing his inclination towards the Fine Arts, Platnic graduated in 2010 with honors in Fine Arts from the Midrasha School of Art in Israel. That very year, he received the Shpilman Grant for Excellence in Photography and was selected by ST-ART, an incubator project for young artists. In 2013, he joined the Gordon Gallery in Tel-Aviv. In 2017, Platnic completed the prestigious Art&amp;Media \u201cMeistersch\u00fcler\u201d program of the Universit\u00e4t der K\u00fcnste (post-M.A.) in Berlin. The creation of Platnic unfolds through multiple media including photography, video, performance, painting and the links that bring them closer together. Platnic has been creating illusionary worlds and letting the viewer become part of them. Immersion in these spaces is employed as a means of deconditioning. Observing and reenacting the rituals and symbols of power, Platnic tracks down the mechanisms that authority uses to submit, to condition and to create participants in its system. By laying out the conditions of aesthetic subversiveness (notably in his series of living paintings, with its formal work on the voluntary confusion of media), Platnic beckons us to take notice of the forces that tacitly and without our knowledge indenture us. His solo exhibitions include the Multi-Media Art Museum, Moscow; Open Museum of Photography, Tel-Hai; Art Stage Art Fair, Singapore; Gordon Gallery, Tel-Aviv. His group exhibitions include Changjiang Museum of Contemporary Art, China; Gutman Museum, Tel-Aviv Museum in Tel Aviv; National Academy of Arts, Kiev; Galleria Continua, Boissy-le-Ch\u00e2tel and Gazelli Art House, London. The articles published on Platnic works include The Wall Street Journal, Der Spiegel, Russia; Artdaily, Lifestyle, Asia; Ocula, Asia Pacific; Nylon Magazine, Art Times, United-States; Randian, China Art Times, China; Elephant Magazine, Phaidon, United Kingdom; Artribune, Artsblog, Italy; Haaretz &#8211; Galeria, Time-Out, Telavivian, Forbes, Calcalist, Ms. Use Magazine, i24News, Kol Israel, Zman Avir, Israel.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-56c7091 elementor-section-content-top elementor-reverse-mobile elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"56c7091\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-66 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-330084f\" data-id=\"330084f\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-aa0e26f elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"aa0e26f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div style=\"position: relative;height: 0;overflow: hidden; padding: 0 0 56.25% 0;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"niio-media-frame\" id=\"niioWidget1\" src=\"https:\/\/embed.niio.com\/1.1\/index.html?showinfo=false&autoplay=false&mute=false&hideinfobtn=true&hidefullscreen=false&controls=true&artworkid=17332&portrait=false&key=GT8QXZKG1B&invitationCode=v22fj72k608gqry\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen width=\"560\" height=\"315\"  style=\"position: absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height: 100%;\" ><\/iframe><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4babc85 text-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-tp-heading-title\" data-id=\"4babc85\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"tp-heading-title.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"heading heading_style heading_style69f69a3a01ef5 style-1 \" ><div class=\"sub-style\" ><div class=\"head-title \" > <h3  class=\"heading-title   \"   data-hover=\"Alexandre Erre\">Alexandre Erre<span class=\"title-s \">  <\/span><\/h3><\/div><div class=\"sub-heading\"><h3 class=\"heading-sub-title  \"> Your presence is no longer required <\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2be88b1 niio-text-run elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2be88b1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div data-block-type=\"2\"><div id=\"block-4f1309a19d32634cfa68\" class=\"sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html\" data-block-type=\"2\"><div class=\"sqs-block-content\">A vision.<\/div><div class=\"sqs-block-content\">That of a world inhabited only by birds.<\/div><div class=\"sqs-block-content\">There isn\u2019t a soul left.<\/div><div class=\"sqs-block-content\">But after all, our presence is no longer required.<\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div class=\"sqs-block-content\">This short was film in the Pacific island of New-Caledonia.

Through the use of installations, sculptures, videos, photographs, interventions in public spaces, performances and engraving, he dissects the codes and norms to question and create memories, tales and fictions. Alexandre Erre\u2019s practice revolves around his native island, New-Caledonia, and broadly speaking around the processes of exotisation, racializing, gendering, domination or cultural hierarchy. His questioning, at the crossroads of gender, sexuality and community lean on his personal background and summons his insularity and his current diaspora status.<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-9be0f66 elementor-section-content-top elementor-reverse-mobile elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"9be0f66\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-66 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-18caa44\" data-id=\"18caa44\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-72176c9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"72176c9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div style=\"position: relative;height: 0;overflow: hidden; padding: 0 0 56.25% 0;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"niio-media-frame\" id=\"niioWidget1\" src=\"https:\/\/embed.niio.com\/1.1\/index.html?showinfo=false&autoplay=false&mute=true&hidefullscreen=false&controls=true&artworkid=18176&portrait=false&key=W5BEUK10KZ&invitationCode=407b3g2ivhtxlah\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen width=\"560\" height=\"315\"  style=\"position: absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height: 100%;\" ><\/iframe><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3ef6a1c text-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-tp-heading-title\" data-id=\"3ef6a1c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"tp-heading-title.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"heading heading_style heading_style69f69a3a04aae style-1 \" ><div class=\"sub-style\" ><div class=\"head-title \" > <h3  class=\"heading-title   \"   data-hover=\"Aleksandar Radan\">Aleksandar Radan<span class=\"title-s \">  <\/span><\/h3><\/div><div class=\"sub-heading\"><h3 class=\"heading-sub-title  \"> This water gives back no Images <\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7cddbf7 niio-text-run elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7cddbf7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div data-block-type=\"2\"><div id=\"block-4f1309a19d32634cfa68\" class=\"sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html\" data-block-type=\"2\"><div class=\"sqs-block-content\">This water gives back no Images 2017, \u00a06:12 min, loop<\/div><div class=\"sqs-block-content\">A soft rustle and shimmering light surrounds chirping birds, which remain hidden in an atmosphere that is at once meditative and permeated by the noises of technical interference. Amidst the computer game\u2019s lushly tropical landscape, an avatar moves past thin palm trees bending in the wind. Wading in the water to bathe, the figure seems to dissolve.In the middle of the film, an embedded black and white recording of one of Nina Simone\u2019s performances suddenly appears like a foreign object. It operates like an image interference in the otherwise consistent computer game-aesthetic of the video, as if it had come from a \u201creal\u201d outside that nevertheless appears no less surreal than everything else. In the song\u2019s lyrics, the reflection of water\u2014or water that denies reflection\u2014also plays a central role. As a medium for self-examination and self-reflection that can initiate the transition between different identities, water gives us life, but it can also submerge and drown us. Through the associative connection between water as the natural foundation for our existence and digital media as the second nature that \u201cflows\u201d around us, Radan confronts us with the open question of our possible identities in a globalized and digitalized world. Simultaneously set into motion and deformed by the momentum of the waves, its contours merge with its reflection, just like the tree canopies above. www.aleksradan.de<\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-1d0baf8\" data-id=\"1d0baf8\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-5e164fe elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"5e164fe\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-c47897a\" data-id=\"c47897a\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f09018f text-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-tp-heading-title\" data-id=\"f09018f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"tp-heading-title.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"heading heading_style heading_style69f69a3a05f6b style-1 \" ><div class=\"sub-style\" ><div class=\"head-title \" > <h2  class=\"heading-title   \"   data-hover=\"Aleksandar Radan\">Aleksandar Radan<span class=\"title-s \">  <\/span><\/h2><\/div><div class=\"sub-heading\"><h3 class=\"heading-sub-title  \"> Artist <\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f646b04 niio-text-about elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f646b04\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Aleksandar Radan was born in Offenbach am Main in 1988. He has been studying art at the Hochschule f\u00fcr Gestaltung Offenbach since 2010. His work is concerned with digital media and the fact that we are continually lagging behind. This notion of \u201clagging behind\u201d may be understood on a metaphorical level. However, it also finds direct expression in the artist\u2019s marked interest both in body language that is influenced by technologies and mass-media communications as well as avatars and images in virtual spaces. The stereotypical, pre-programmed gestures of digital avatars that oscillate between life-like and artificially stiff form a leitmotif in Radan\u2019s work. Improvisational moments augment these gestures, which are manipulated through game modding. Radan primarily films live action footage in altered computer game surroundings, which the artist has deliberately altered to serve as his stage sets. By interfering with a game\u2019s software database, game modding enables one to rewrite the codes for a game\u2019s visual surface textures and sounds, for example. In turn, they become artistic materials that can be manipulated. In Radan\u2019s experimental short films, the programmed meets the improvised, and the default is confronted with the spontaneous actions of the artist\u2014who is also the player\u2014in a virtual environment. Radan\u2019s works have been featured at multiple venues, including the Clermont-Ferrand International Short Film Festival and the International Short Film Festival in Oberhausen.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-4548db5 elementor-section-content-top elementor-reverse-mobile elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"4548db5\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-66 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-966f0d4\" data-id=\"966f0d4\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dfd3b6b elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"dfd3b6b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div style=\"position: relative;height: 0;overflow: hidden; padding: 0 0 56.25% 0;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"niio-media-frame\" id=\"niioWidget1\" src=\"https:\/\/embed.niio.com\/1.1\/index.html?showinfo=false&autoplay=false&mute=true&hidefullscreen=false&controls=true&artworkid=17386&portrait=false&key=XGTM9064MZ&invitationCode=6lh68uo6qqx5slj\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen width=\"560\" height=\"315\"  style=\"position: absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height: 100%;\" ><\/iframe><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9eb6129 text-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-tp-heading-title\" data-id=\"9eb6129\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"tp-heading-title.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"heading heading_style heading_style69f69a3a075e7 style-1 \" ><div class=\"sub-style\" ><div class=\"head-title \" > <h3  class=\"heading-title   \"   data-hover=\"Yuge Zhou\">Yuge Zhou<span class=\"title-s \">  <\/span><\/h3><\/div><div class=\"sub-heading\"><h3 class=\"heading-sub-title  \"> Soft Plots <\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a146166 niio-text-run elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a146166\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div data-block-type=\"2\"><div id=\"block-4f1309a19d32634cfa68\" class=\"sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html\" data-block-type=\"2\"><div class=\"sqs-block-content\">Soft Plots portrays a conception of urban living that is both group-oriented and discontinuous, with underlying conflicts and competitions.

Things around us are constantly changing in tiny ways that we don\u2019t notice, eventually building up to growth and death. In \u201cConfluence,\u201d a new film by director Noah Shulman, viewers look beyond what the human eye is capable of seeing to experience those moments in between the transformations that we perceive.\u00a0 Noah Shulman shot an array of processes both natural and mechanical at incredibly close range and in a controlled environment, allowing to isolate the micro-movements that constantly occur around us in a nearly balletic way. The film includes extreme close-ups of everything from magnetic to chemical and heat reactions, but it\u2019s up to the viewer to extrapolate out from what they can see to imagine the larger view that they can\u2019t.\u00a0 Created with specialty macro lenses and microscopes and shot in 4K resolution, the film reveals hauntingly beautiful movement at the microscopic level and reminds viewers that everything around them is in flux, even when the surface is calm. Tiny movements compound upon each other to create perceptible change. The film is part of Mental Fabrications, an installation by architect Ion Popian that aims to map the mind&#8217;s mental landscape through electroencephalogram (EEG) and 3D printing.\u00a0To do that, \u201cConfluence\u201d seeks to stimulate particular brain activities and reactions.<\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-f308003\" data-id=\"f308003\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-bd522be elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"bd522be\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-e7912ed\" data-id=\"e7912ed\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5571871 text-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-tp-heading-title\" data-id=\"5571871\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"tp-heading-title.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"heading heading_style heading_style69f69a3a0b7c7 style-1 \" ><div class=\"sub-style\" ><div class=\"head-title \" > <h2  class=\"heading-title   \"   data-hover=\"Noah Shulman\">Noah Shulman<span class=\"title-s \">  <\/span><\/h2><\/div><div class=\"sub-heading\"><h3 class=\"heading-sub-title  \"> Artist <\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1a4ba67 niio-text-about elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1a4ba67\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Noah Shulman is a New York City born artist and creative storyteller, with a focus on branded content, commercial, design, short-form docs and animation.

The current work takes place on the moon and depicts a fictional event \u2013 the opening of a new falafel stand. The video begins with a wide-shot of space and continues with Marcus, dressed as an astronaut, landing on the moon. After getting \u2018lost in space\u2019 he finally notices a flag and realizes he has reached his final destination. Thereafter, he opens an inflatable falafel stand and puts up his own flag with the inscription: \u201cKing of Falafel\u201d. After struggling with the making of the dish, his ultimate success is celebrated with a triumphal \u2018selfie\u2019. This humorous piece, shot in the spirit of \u2018space adventure\u2019 films, touches a few historical and contemporary socio-political issues. The major theme of the work is the discovery and conquest of a new frontier. This theme plays a major part in the Zionist ethos and the early formation of Israel. It also echoes the history of America and the Western European Colonial past. By depicting an astronaut who is wearing a white suit with blue stripes that resembles the Israeli flag, Marcus reflects on a contemporary \u2018Colonialist\u2019 phenomenon in the shape of Israeli tourism. the famous historical rivalry between former USSR and USA over the landing on the moon is thereby defeated by an Israeli pioneer \u2013 the first one to set up a food stand in space! .<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-b72278d\" data-id=\"b72278d\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-4b0b22a elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"4b0b22a\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-e130cc3\" data-id=\"e130cc3\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7c49f15 text-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-tp-heading-title\" data-id=\"7c49f15\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"tp-heading-title.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"heading heading_style heading_style69f69a3a0e512 style-1 \" ><div class=\"sub-style\" ><div class=\"head-title \" > <h2  class=\"heading-title   \"   data-hover=\"Shahar Marcus \">Shahar Marcus <span class=\"title-s \">  <\/span><\/h2><\/div><div class=\"sub-heading\"><h3 class=\"heading-sub-title  \"> Artist <\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5c5d48d niio-text-about elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5c5d48d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Shahar Marcus (b. 1971) is an Israeli based artist who primary works in the medium of performance and video art. His initial works dealt with the exploration of his own body and its limitations- incorporating various perishable materials, such as dough, juice and ice. His body served as an instrument, a platform on which various \u2018experiments\u2019 took place: lying on the operating table, set on fire, dressed in a \u2018bread suit\u2019 and more. Food is also a major theme in Marcus\u2019s works. For instance, his recurrent use of bread as a symbol of essentiality and survival is juxtaposed with military symbols. By working with food, a perishable, momentary substance and by turning it into a piece of clothing or a set, Marcus also flirts with art history; transforming arbitrary objects and materials into something immortal and everlasting. His early video-performances feature himself along with other artists, with whom he had collaborated in the past. However, in his recent works, Marcus appears by himself, while embodying different roles and characters. \u2018The man with the suit\u2019 is a personage that was born from an intuitive desire to create a \u2018clean-cut\u2019 version of an artist, juxtaposed to the common visual stereotype of the artist as a laborer. Drawing influence from Magritte\u2019s familiar figure- the headless suit, a symbol of Petite bourgeoisie, Marcus embodies this man with a suit as an artist who is in charge, a director. His most recent works deal with local political issues, by approaching iconic Israeli landmarks with a critical and humorous point of view. Thus, Marcus reflects on his own heritage, environment and the creation of local historical narratives. His works are influenced by the visual language of cinematography along with familiar themes and tributes to art \u2013 history and artists, such as Ives Klein, Paul McCarthy, Peter Greenway and Jackson Pollack. *Shahar Marcus is an active artist for over a decade and has exhibited at various art- institutions, both in Israel and around the world, including: The Tate Modern ,The Israel Museum, Tel Aviv Museum of Art, Petach Tikva Museum of Art , Charlottenburg, Copenhagen- Kunsthalle , Moscow Biennale, Poznan Biannale, Moscow Museum of Modern Art and at other art- venues in Polland, Italy, Germany, Georgia, Japan, the USA and Turkey.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section
