LOOKING FOR PRESENT MOTION



Looking for Present Motion was my second major exhibition showing results of the painting process I started experimenting with in 2012.  The paintings were the result of a printing process that visualized the multiple potential evolutions of an original diagram under different environmental factors and the capillarity of water. The exhibition was designed as a multimedia immersive experience in collaboration with Retrieving Beirut and included collaborations by Mme Chandelier in a participatory sound installation and Ahlam Dirani & Fernando Wanderley in a Butoh performance filmed by Maria Zalloum.
