Eternal Forms
“Eternal Forms” is an interactive artwork incorporating geometric elements in motion. The construction of the elements is highly precise in order to generate an optical illusion of constant collision. The illusion is a result of linear patterns overlapping in motion between geometric forms. The foreground square will be firmly stabilised while the background circle will be in rotating constantly. While display lights change their chromatic values when participants interact from ranging proximities.
The artwork takes inspiration from various light and form installation projects by Nonotak, an artist duo consisting of Illustrator Noemi Schipfer and architect-musician Takami Nakamoto. Nonotak works with sound, light and patterns achieved with repeating geometric forms. The installation work aims to immerse the viewer by enveloping them in the space with dreamlike kinetic visuals. The duo is also known for embedding custom-built technology in their installations, as well as conventional technology to achieve desired effects in unconventional ways.
