Visual Voltage in Shanghai - Mezzo

Artists Steven Dixon and Tore Nilsson explore a large number of images they associate with energy and the many themes this has given rise to in the human mind and beliefs. On 24 small monitors images flicker, pause, return, creating an open fabric of the meanings of energy from the beginnings of the ideas of amber and static electricity to the electro-magnetic pulse of the earth, and forming for the viewer an open field for a myriad reflections of what energy could be and what meanings it could yield.When you approach the installation, audio is triggered becoming louder and stronger as one comes closer to the monitors. The kinetic energy of the viewer is translated into the power and clarity that the sounds are given.
