Lydia Venieri (Greece) Lydia is a multiple media artist whose work ranges from sculpture to installations incorporating painting, photography, video and the Internet.

In all his work, the artist demonstrates an uncanny ability for capturing people’s circumstances on film and video.

A living experiment in cross-cultural relations with foundation Chairman Krzysztof Czyzewski.

ignored in my heaven… is a new evening-length work inspired by Rumsey’s dream and travel journals.

Both the Doom_machine and Mechanism no.1 address our concerns and fears in the world as we embrace technology and its powers, both good and bad. Ultimately we are responsible for the power of technology and how it is used. This exhibition looks at the fear factor in the world particularly during these times of uncertainty and paranoia.

“Thanks to science and new inventions in technology, I have chosen mechanics and video-recording devices as tools to reflect e-society, plus such mediums as feeling, listening, smelling and virtual pictures to produce interaction between viewers and my works. This enables viewers to break through purely static visual limitation and further experience what the artist intends to express in his works in an all round way. Personal participation can better stimulate the imagination of viewers.”

White Balance (to think is to forget differences) is an effort to uncover the geographies of power, the frontiers of privilege.

Media and internet footage is intermixed with images shot in downtown Manhattan before and after the September 11th attacks.
