ARIUM INSTALLATION
ARIUM is a unique audiovisual installation, built by a projection of images onto a transparent box filled with hazer. The result is a huge semi-transparent holographic projection, supported by a custom sound design. By incarcerating light in a glass container, it is manipulated, revealing the various forms it might take. This way, the reality we know shatters, and a different kind of reality unveils.
ARIUM continues its journey around the world, as an audiovisual holographic installation. First showcased in 2015 Contemporary Istanbul Art Fair - Plugin New Media section, it has also been to ISEA International 2019 in South Korea as a part of the Juried Exhibition.

ARIUM PERFORMANCE
ARIUM originated as a site-specific audiovisual experience, with projection mapping onto three plexiglas boxes filled with hazer, an unusual stage setting for contemporary electronic music by Chris Clark at the 4th edition of Lunchmeat Festival 2013.
The headlining performance of the sold-out Lunchmeat festival, an event presenting various contemporary electronica artists together with innovative visualists, brought Nohlab together with the cult Warp Records signee Clark. As the residential artist of Lunchmeat, Nohlab prepared a unique site specific installation during a very limiting period of 9 days. As a spatial installation consisting of three transparent 7 meters-wide plexiglas boxes and a hazer, the result wasn‘t a classic mapping, but a huge semi-transparent holographic projection situated in front of Clark.
This truly unique achievement created a 3D holographic effect, and was also a premiere of such a concept in contemporary club electronica environment. The main partner of the residence was Gambrinus Excelent.
