Nataša Prosenc Stearns - Wishing Well (00:03:00)
Production: 2015
Wishing Well as well as Night Spring, is video installations that show images of the human body's exterior and interior. They are beaming with variety of pains and pleasures and walk the line between the real and the imaginary. Beneath what appear to be natural processes and coloured reflections, a gradual transformation slowly plays out and puts the elements and body in a relation of new reciprocity by using various editing techniques. Two semi-abstract palpitating heart muscles are synchronised with...

Valérie Wolf Gang - Dali's blue (trailer) (00:15:00 (00:02:23))
Production: 2013
Dali's blue is video installation by Valerie Wolf Gang inspired by the Salvador Dali's picture Galatea of the Spheres. In the video Valerie is painting the face of a young man blue and the video is projected on white balloons suspended from the ceiling. Balloons are set in different layers so the projection becomes three dimensional in space and it degrades the video image in smaller parts which became it’s own separate videos. If you look at the projection from the frontal part you can see a yo...

Nataša Prosenc Stearns - Crawlers (Monfort, Portorož) (00:02:49)
Production: Obalne galerije Piran, 2016
Video instalacijo, narejeno posebej za prostor razstavišča Monfort v Portorožu, sestavlja sedem sinhroniziranih video projekcij s prizori človeških teles v gibanju, ki spominja na plazilce. Sledijo drug drugemu v skupnem ritmu, ki jih medsebojno povezuje in jih hkrati zliva z okoljem. Posnetki so deloma abstrahirani: telesa in ozadje se ploščijo v enotno gibljivo strukturo. Podobno kot drugi avtoričini projekti zadnjih let, ki se osredotočajo na avtentične izkušnje fizičnega obstoja, preizkušaj...

Nika Oblak & Primož Novak - 900 m3 Sand (00:10:21)
Production: Universitätskulturzentrum UNIKUM, Klagenfurt in cooperation with section.a, Vienna, 2014
'900 m3 Sand' is a video installation created as a response to the specific site, a 1st world war cavern on mount Sabotin near Nova Gorica, Slovenia. The volume corresponds to the volume of the cavern dug out by soldiers mostly by hand in the course of 2 years. On Nika Oblak & Primož Novak's request a digger in a quarry composed a 900 m3 large pile of sand in a day. The action alludes to the absurd amount of the labor invested in constructing a battlefield and the pointlessness of warfare. (S...

Nika Oblak & Primož Novak - Reality is out (00:02:01)
Production: EMARE MEX 2012-2013 – New Mexican and European Media Art, Halle in cooperation with Centro Multimedia of Centro Nacional de las Artes, Mexico City, 2012
'Reality is Out' is a kinetic video installation, which combines Nika Oblak & Primož Novak's performance video, pneumatic mechanism and the actual cardboard sign, which appears as if exiting the video frame and literally entering the exhibition space. The work is a continuum of Oblak and Novak's exploration of the relationship between reality and fiction. As according to Žižek, today's reality has appropriated a fictional structure.

Nika Oblak & Primož Novak - Sisyphus Actions (00:03:00)
Production: 2011
'Sisyphus Actions' is a kinetic video installation in which Nika Oblak & Primož Novak repeat monotonous, seemingly purposeless actions over and over. A surreal, absurd situation reflects contemporary global way of life, where people are trapped by daily routines and artificially produced consumerist needs. Software synchronizes custom designed pneumatic system with a particular video, thus transferring 2D video image into 3D actual space. (Source: Nika Oblak & Primož Novak) Co-production: SAIR...

Nika Oblak & Primož Novak - The Box (00:01:02)
Production: 2005
'The Box' is a kinetic video installation which shows Nika Oblak & Primož Novak being trapped, trying to escape to the outside. As they hit their fists against the walls of the interior surrounding them, trying to break through, each hit is visible, since the rubber bends outwards. The work is influenced by constant exposure to mass media messages and inability to avoid its effects. It evokes detachment, the possibility to exist outside prevailing systems. Oblak and Novak's attempt of escape...

'Border Mover' is a kinetic video installation made in co-production with MMCA Residency Changdong, National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Seoul, South Korea, dealing with contemporary individual being trapped by overwhelming technology and routine of our everyday existence, which more and more resembles monotony of operating machines. It is playing with ideas of physical and psychical boundaries as the consequence of capitalistic, neoliberal globalization, where it seems dreams are impos...
