Lucas Bang: Static Dynamic Emergent
January 29, 2024Sprague Gallery is pleased to announce Static Dynamic Emergent, the first solo exhibition of Lucas Bang. This collection of works explores the boundary spaces between stillness, 运动, 和 self-reflective generation within a computationally mediated world.
The exhibition presents five recent projects that examine human activities, 可能性, expectations 和 automations. Autopoietic Turing Machine 和 Autopoietic Neural Net reflect on computational systems that are capable of self-examination for the purpose of changing their own behavior within a constrained set of 可能性. Several transparent layers of animated 和 static lines that depict looping structures present in both habituated human actions 和 computational repetition make up the multi-media piece 广场循环. The site-specific sculptural installation 触摸草地 is inspired by conversations about workload with 学生s at the Claremont Colleges. Time Slips 1, 2, 和 3 are a series of video installations encouraging the viewer to contemplate their own 运动 through time 和 space while under self-surveillance.
Static Dynamic Emergent opens on January 29 和 continues through March 3, 2024.
Gallery hours are Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. 到5点.m., with additional hours during events on evenings 和 weekends.
The exhibition is open to the public.
The exhibition is curated by Lucas Bang 和 Ken F和ell of Harvey Mudd College.
