ANY DAY NOW

Digital artist Andrés Reisinger alongside director and visual artist Sam Mason present ANYDAY NOW, a new digital artwork that will be exhibited in London at W1 Curates digital exhibition space, W1 Immersive, from October 20th to November 10th. The unique gallery located in the heart of Oxford Circus uses state-of-the-art technology to showcase the most innovative digital creations, both projected on their large-sized public outdoor screens and in their interior spaces. The overall enveloping experience will plunge visitors intoReisinger and Mason’s shared vision, and will talk, simply, about life.

Reisinger and Mason’s piece is a visual poem reflecting on life’s cycle and everything that happens in between. The main question is towards the possibilities of the future: how will our experience be, next time? The overall feel of ANY DAY NOW is reminiscent of a metaphysical suspension counteracted by a strong geometrical structure. The artwork paints a place in unrolled time, where gravity reigns and where any living element, such as humans, is extracted. Several components have been included as metaphors of life and its endless evolution. Life, power, wealth, and nature are narrated through universal symbols, portraying a picture of the present moment that endures forever.

The outdoor screens will constantly be on, to allow London passers-by to admire the artwork at any time of the day. For the indoor enveloping installation, three different spaces create a portal towards divinity; the environments are each dominated by a table, symbolising life itself, with various objects laying, as circumstances and moments that come, dictate, define, and simply go. The overall composition, enriched by a new audio work by musician RAC, is filled with sand, reminding us of the temporality of everything; the artwork, however, never speaks of there being an end or a beginning, rather illustrating the infinite cycle of life.

For ANY DAY NOW, Reisinger and Mason conceived an artwork that speaks of a theme common to all, thinking of the specific public location of its exhibit; on the other hand, it is a singular example of an expression of technology that is able to construct human, poetic narratives.
