Join us for a live performance of ‘digital kinetic painting’ and improvised music.
Join us for a live performance of ‘digital kinetic painting’ and improvised music.
Samia Halaby (b.1936, Jerusalem), pioneer of early digital art, will be putting abstraction into motion using late 1980s self-taught technologies and an original computer programme, written on her Amiga 1000. Her performances historically redefine the dimensions of painting and negotiate space, time, and movement as one. Samia will be joined by Guohan Zheng, a Ningbo-born and Nottingham-based musician whose sound draws from a tapestry of organic grooves and global influences.
The collaborative performance will be followed by a Q&A with Samia Halaby, moderated by Liv Penrose Punnett.
