BIRDS A_LIGHTING by Philipp Geist
The Berlin-based artist Philipp Geist (1976) will show his installation 'Birds A_Lighting' at the art space EL ESCAPARATE. In his concept he projects directly on origami cranes and paper structures. The birds are being transformed and animated by images alternating between purist, poetic, dreamlike and intangibly fragile compositions. The result is an
interplay between the fragile traditional Japanese craft and his video works. This combination of still and moving elements creates suspense, as well as the arrangement of the static and geometrical birds that partly dissolve into heaps of paper. Thus, an interplay between planned and exact structures and coincidental chaos is being created. His live performance at the opening on 18 Jun 2009 and 20 June will be followed by a window installation including photo works.
Philipp Geist, born in Witten in 1976, grew up in Weilheim and moved to Berlin in 1999.
As an artist and autodidact, he works internationally with the mediums video installation,
