Petra Kapš (a.k.a OR poiesis) is one of the few Slovenian artists whose work focusses on sound installations/performances and on blending audio and various visual practices. For her presentation at the Judgement Tower she invited Nikos Sotirelis, a Greek architect, sound artist, and electroacoustic music composer to collaborate in this exhibition.
In this exhibition, she features multiple solo works (video performance, sound sculpture, performative prints), which she merges into a unified visual and sound composition, finely attuned to the atmosphere of the medieval tower. Central to Kapš's work are unconventional practices, such as deep listening, the interception of barely perceptible movements in matter, silent coexistence with beings of the Earth, air, and water, physical performative rituals, converting immaterial experiences into visual images, performances involving rocks and sound, performative photography, and more.
