Space Interface II
EBERHARD KRANEMANN & MATHEW EMMETT 2 10 SEPTEMBER, KARST, PLYMOUTH
Space Interface II is a collaborative exhibition between Kranemann and Emmett who synthesise hybrid space through mixed reality performance. Kranemann and Emmett act cooperatively to acculturate the audience’s perception of physical space by creating a multilevel immersive environment in which the performers and audience are encouraged to simultaneously occupy multiple points on the mixed reality continuum.
In addition to exhibiting the original Space Interface works previously shown at Weithorn Galerie, Düsseldorf (2015), Kranemann and Emmett will include new and complementary works, that address the themes and discourse of their ongoing collaboration resynchronising the boundaries of art and science.
