CORGO. video installation . 2014

loop . multichannel.. sound . HD

River Corgo inside the Museum space.
Multi-channel video installation,
Vila Velha Museum Vila Real, GIF 2014 Artistic Residence

A reflection in the scope of the tactility of the video image through the exploring of textures of the river CORGO, element that steeply cuts and crosses Vila Real. The image is mediated by digital support, climbs up to the city and occupies the Museum space.

A dual-projection device marks the entrance hall and the reconfiguration of the spectator's route: an animated textured stream, the main window-wave, and a river stream projecting onto the floor of the space.

The first projection skin is porous, revealed both in the interior and exterior of the Museum, establishing a dialogue between architecture and the moving image.The video installation reveals itself at nightfall.

a resilient space,

Full of palm leaves suspended from a dark ceiling of stars, Light and wind gently sway the leaves,
Moving shadows, that will change with time,
sound.
