transreal+
Glitches, Ruptures, Overflow: in transreal+, the artists
Hannah Wimmer and Maxmilian Prag enter into a digital symbiosis with the exhibition space of the University Gallery of Angewandte.
Based on movements captured by a motion capture suit, the space is explored performatively and translated and trans-formed
into virtual and offline worlds. Collaboratively and always in the face of digital (dis)continuities between overload and
intuitive understanding of the body, doublings of worlds are renegotiated in transreal+. The two artists dedicate themselves
to the inseparable relationship between bodies and digital space and venture a look under the skin, at the structures and
meta-physical conditions of our time. During the duration of the show, the exhibition will be continuously adapted through
three performative interventions and the relationships between the worlds will be further entangled.
The
project transreal+ is based on an ongoing collaboration between the artists Maximilian Prag (media art) and Hannah Wimmer
(contemporary dance), which began in 2021 with the performance "being both" (2022) as part of the Salzkammergut Capital of
Culture in Bad Ischl, was continued with "transreal" (2023) at Galerie Franz Josefs Kai 5 in Vienna and continued with thematic
offshoots such as "folkcore 5. 0" (2023, Tartu Estonia) and "touching screens more than skin" (2023, Best Austrian Animation
Festival).
