Nikkole Huss
 "Into the smog"

For the 48 Stunden Neukolln 2021 Festival: Air, Nikkole Huss will create a large-scale, site-specific, installation using ink on paper.  Paper airplanes lined with text collected from various sources highlight statistics on global air pollution. The carrier of this commentary is often associated with light-hearted, frivolous flights, a direct reflection on human nature’s tendency to ignore precarious situations.

Anna Wenning
 "TO BLOW UP A BALLOON"

In the process of painting, Anna Wenning deals with fantasy pictures as well as reality and create new worlds – between the yearning for an idyll and the fear of destruction.
She likes to to draw and paint scenes from memory at night and without artificial light.
It is not by coincidence that forms of the familiar appear, figurative forms, particularly as they appear as if they were an afterimage on the lens with closed eyes.

Katarzyna Bak
 "Eye of the Storm"

For the Art Festival 48 Std. Neukolln 2021 ”Air”. Katarzyna Bak presents works from the serie “Eye of the Storm”.
Unstable masses of air meet and start a dance around the point where the atmosphere pressure is least. This dance in the sky generates a cyclone. The center of this swirling dance is the “eye of the storm”, a dark energy that looms, attracts you, sucks you up to catapult you into infinity.
“Eye of the storm” is a project to start with a series of drawings and continues with the acrylic paintings where a circle represents an impending storm, the climax instant between the encounter of the air masses and re-establishment of calm and tranquillity.

Francesca Fini
 "THE READING, TILL THE END OF THE WORLD
augmented reality installation"

Starting from a collage, which re-elaborates and recomposes elements and images from classic portraits of the Renaissance and pictorial romanticism, Francesca Fini creates two prints on canvas that are displayed next to each other.
Thanks to an augmented reality app, once the diptych is framed with a mobile phone or tablet, the two images magically come alive and begin to interact. The elements move, coming out of the canvas, telling a story that invades the surrounding exhibition space, creating a dense dialogue that simulates a poetic reading out of time and space. The reader on one side, and the musician next to her, recite the magnificent passage from Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet celebrating the beauty and ferocity of Nature. While the animation slowly destroys the serene, sunny and idyllic atmosphere of the Renaissance landscape, making us fall into a world invaded by waste and devoured by flames.
