Video večer s Postajo DIVA: Uršula Berlot

Pogovor in projekcija.

Vizualna umetnica, umetnostna teoretičarka in profesorica Uršula Berlot se umetniško in raziskovalno ukvarja s presečišči umetnosti, znanosti in filozofije. V umetniškem delu se osredotoča na nevidne in nematerialne vidike realnosti, pri čemer pogosto uporablja tehnološko napredna optična raziskovalna orodja (radiologija, mikroskopija) za raziskovanje liminalnih vidikov zaznavne izkušnje. V eksperimentalni in raziskovalno naravnani umetniški praksi prepleta različne medije in žanre, v video delih, svetlobno-kinetičnih instalacijah ali risbah raziskuje oblike mentalnih prostorov, vprašanje simulirane narave ter odnose med umom, telesom in tehnologijo. Na dogodku bo predstavila izbor videov in del v drugih medijih iz svojega bogatega opusa, v katerih uporablja refleksijo mikroskopskih oziroma optičnih tehnologij.

Na Video večerih s Postajo DIVA gostimo avtorice_, vključene_ v arhiv, ki jih povabimo, da spregovorijo o svojem delu in ozadju nastanka posameznih video projektov. Predstavitev v galeriji (artist talk) spremljajo projekcije s komentarji, čemur sledi pogovor s publiko. Video večere kurira strokovna sodelavka Postaje DIVA Vesna Bukovec.

Talk and Screening.

Visual artist, art theorist and professor Uršula Berlot works artistically and research-wise at the intersections of art, science and philosophy. In her artistic work, she focuses on invisible and immaterial aspects of reality, often using technologically advanced optical research tools (radiology, microscopy) to explore the liminal aspects of perceptual experience. In her experimental and research-oriented artistic practice, she interweaves various media and genres, exploring the forms of mental spaces, the question of simulated nature and the relationships between mind, body and technology in video works, light-kinetic installations or drawings. At the event, she will present a selection of videos and works in other media from her rich oeuvre, in which she uses the reflection of microscopic or optical technologies.

At the Video Evenings with DIVA Station, we host authors included in the archive, who are invited to talk about their work and the background of the creation of individual video projects. The presentation in the gallery (artist talk) is accompanied by projections with comments, followed by a discussion with the audience. The video evenings are curated by DIVA Station expert Vesna Bukovec.
