The Arena Movedizas
festival was a festival of the moving image. The main venue was the Barjola
Museum. The museum is a beautiful building: an ancient facade and chapel
has been seemlessly welded to a modern interior. The original parts of
the building are more than 300 years old. The chapel is an imposing space
with a twin domed ceiling 12 metres high. This providided a perfect location
for the suspended light sculptures. There are two kinds of sculptures
on display: Wave Equations and HyperSpheres.
I consider this the
most perfect exhibition I have presented as the space suited the work
so well. The tall shape of the room was ideal and the installation was
enhanced by the organisers, Fiumfoto, painting the walls black and fitting
black carpet specially for this exhibition.
