ART-MEDITATIONS
Visual and Inner Journeys
Art Meditations is an immersive artistic practice working with perception, attention, and shared presence. Through the integration of visual art, live voice-based auditory flow, and directed attention, the project creates spaces in which connection emerges directly — between people, their inner experience, and the surrounding environment.
The practice exists in two interconnected formats.
Live Art Meditations
Each art meditation does not replicate the previous one: every event is a unique process and a new narrative structure shaped by the site, context, participants, and the situational dynamics of the moment.
In this format, an art meditation functions not as an object to be observed, but as a temporary shared encounter entered through attention, listening, and embodied engagement. The practice does not invite interpretation or analysis; instead, it invites participants to inhabit an experience in the present moment — an experience unfolding in real time and shaped by the process of presence itself.
Video Installations
Recorded works may be presented and re-presented within festivals, online presentations, and exhibition projects. This format includes video collages combined with recorded audio (including English-language versions), allowing the practice to be integrated into institutional and media contexts without losing its artistic integrity.
Presentation Formats
The Art Meditations project may be presented in the following formats:
Format 1. Gallery Installation with QR Code (Immersive)
A video or visual installation in an exhibition space with access to an audio meditation via QR code. The format allows for individual or collective immersion at the viewer’s own pace.
Format 2. Gallery Screening (Black Box / Blue Box)
Single- or multi-channel video screenings in a darkened space (black box / blue box), adapted for festival or exhibition contexts.
Format 3. Online Format (Live or Recorded)
An online presentation in the form of a live session or recorded work, enabling engagement with a geographically distributed international audience.
Format 4. Offline Live Performance with Audience
A live, in-person event in which the art meditation unfolds as a performative artistic situation shaped by space, voice, and collective attention.
Art Meditations can be adapted to both classical exhibition environments (white cube) and alternative venues, allowing the project to be integrated into curatorial programs engaging with themes of collective memory, inner ecology, embodiment, care, and the relationship between human perception and planetary processes.
Detailed technical requirements for each presentation format are available via link.
Research Dimension
At the core of the project is an inquiry into how art influences perception, attention, and relational awareness in the present moment. The practice is informed by principles of neuroaesthetics — particularly the understanding that visual imagery, voice, rhythm, and directed attention shape emotional states, embodied responses, and a sense of connection.
Art Meditations do not transmit fixed meanings or provide instructions. Instead, they create conditions in which meaning and experience emerge through lived engagement.
Curatorial Context
The project does not approach meditation as a therapeutic tool. Instead, it focuses on meditation as an artistic and cultural practice that allows for the exploration of how contemporary individuals relate to space, time, and inner experience within conditions of accelerated reality.
Art Meditations offer a space of pause within the institutional context — a space where art ceases to function as spectacle and becomes an invitation to attention, presence, and care.
